ئەپەکە بەدەست بهێنەAll the Feels - Leading Our Emotionsنموونە
DAY 18: DESIRE
Desire can be a wonderful thing if led and tethered to God’s design for our lives.
We are created to have an intimate desire for our spouse in the context of marriage, a drive towards working hard or excelling in an area of gifting and a passion for the purposes God has placed within us. The challenging part about desire is if we let it lead us, it can take us to places that are actually harmful even if they are desirable.
The world says, 'follow your heart' and 'do what feels right to you' but that is opposite of what God’s Word says. The Bible reminds us to guard our hearts and not go after whatever we want. Jesus says, “...whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.” (Matthew 16:24, NIV)
As you study and reflect on today’s Scriptures, consider if there is any area of desire that is pulling you away from the godly life God has designed for you.

Feelings. We all have them. Some of us speak them out loud while others silently shut down. As we walk through life experiencing the highs and lows of celebrating, grieving and everything in between—what happens to us and our relationships when we let what we feel drive what we do? How can we lead our feelings instead of being led by them? Let’s learn how to authentically navigate "all the feels" according to God’s Word without allowing our emotions to cloud our experiences. 30 Day-Devo by Nicole Wiencek with Ashley Clement.
