"why not just follow your feelings?"
Darla Baltazar
My heart will beat faster, but it wonβt be the master β οΈπ πΌβοΈΒ For someone like me, spontaneous emotions can be overwhelming.
Thatβs why I donβt follow my feelingsβparticularly earthly desires.

Moreover, I notice that these almost always lead to sin. So why decide based on something so fickle? π
So whatβs a more stable anchor? Simple: truth β
πβDo not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.β (1 John 2:15)
When I feel restless, I have to examine it. Because if it leads me to run after something or someone, thatβs a pretty bad sign π©
Instead, I have to return to this truth:
β βThe LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing.β (Psalm 23:1)
πΒ What do you do when youβre overwhelmed with desires?
