It's raining right now.
My soul feels rainy today....when I feel this way...I try to remember that God gives us women emotions for a reason. I heard them once compared to a swing. What is a swing meant to do? Swing of course.
But the anchor of the swing is secure, right? I saw a beautiful painting once of a woman swinging high but the hand of God was holding the ropes.
If we live OUTWARD from our Christ center instead of in the middle ground of our soul (mind will and emotions) then we will always be starting at the right place. Our perfect union with Christ.
Otherwise if if we live from our soul, then we live from the place where our life's experiences have left life patterns good or bad....but letting the light and life of Christ flow outward from our union center keeps things cleansed and in perspective.

what an interesting thought on the picture of the swing! Very nice.
I've just gone through some "emotional" moments lately and let me tell you I didn't want them BUT they were there, period. I think hormones are really kicking my butt lately. But the Word is solid and sure. Knowing the emotions can go as quickly as they come (this too shall pass) just makes me want to keep focused on that solid rock with all my might.
