    Emotional Health!

    “Good morning Lord, I love you, I say with a smile. “Good morning Krista,” he touches my face. I breathe a while. “Lord we worked on the pathways yesterday. What shall we do today?” “Pray.” And I begin to pray.

    Psalm 31:7 I will be glad and rejoice in Your mercy, For You have considered my trouble; You have known my soul in adversities,

    Emotional health is a big key for balanced life. Putting our needs to Jesus first and making him first will help us to be healthier and heal if we have come out of emotional abuse. Cutting the unhealthy emotional ties with others is also important and with some we need to cut the ties completely. We will need to be tethered to the Lord and properly tethered to ourselves. I found myself repenting of allowing or putting others first in my emotions, it is idolatry. I have been growing in this my whole life, it is just a new level I have come out of. It isn’t a blame game, but when we see the truth we can see what needs to change and then take a step.

    Emotional Ties!

    I come into the Center of My Garden with my robe of humility and a bouquet of fragrant red roses. I look up to smile at the Master Gardener. “Good morning my husband, I love you! I have brought you a fragrant bouquet from the garden.” I hand them to him. He looks at me longingly and lovingly and accepts the flowers. He leans in to take in their fragrance. When he looks up we share a smile. He takes my hand and we walk. “Let us work in the paths today in the garden. It will be a prosperous and joy filled day.” “Yes Lord!” I sing: “Give me oil in my lamp…”

    Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. “Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.

    Cutting the emotional ties takes time, but begins with a decision. The Master Gardener is a great help in this! It is the quest for liberty and truth. Investing in ones own emotions and self is an important part of this process. Lord lead us in healthy stable emotions and break the emotional ties that have bound us. Let us know truth and Liberty! Let there be joy in the process today too!!!
