God made you to have feelings. He has a desire for you to experience His presence with your emotions, to express yourself emotionally, and to have an emotional relationship with other people. The Lord desires that you become emotionally whole!
For most of us, the realm of emotions has uncharted territories. We are unsure of the language of emotions. We have neglected or feared to explore areas of the inner life. Recognize at the outset of this study that if this is true for you, it is likely true for every other person you know. Give family members, your circle of friends, other church members, your Bible study group, the freedom to err on their way toward emotional health.
