APPETITE, A KIND OF EMOTION

By
Appetite is a kind of Emotions. A very strong emotion to that stems from physiological desires.
   Appetite is a craving for something, not only food. It is a strong desire to attain or get something. It is simply the "I want to" and "I must" in every human being. Appetite is a natural phenomenon, but when it grows out of control, it is dangerous.
How is appetite related to or a kind of Emotions?
Remember that, percieved feelings refer to emotions. While craving and longing to get something, there is a kind eagerness, unrest or anxiety that arises in the process, such is a touch one's feelings. This feeling grows as the appetite is unsatisfied and because of the curiosity to be satisfied, appetite can make someone to be desperate to do anything. To have appetite for something is normal, but inability to control it is unhealthy physically and spiritually.
    A lot of destinies have been joepardized for lack of emotional control, especially that of appetite and hunger. Uncontrolled appetite for food, sex, money and other material things constitute the reason for many of the calamities encountered in this generation. Esau for an instance, Esau is a character in the Bible, the twin brother of Jacob. One fateful afternoon, he grew an appetite for "common" pottage, and he could not control himself, he was so desperate that he gave out his birth right in place of food. We need to get this right, that an unbalanced life emotionally is a shattered life in whole, when you can not tame your cravings and emotions, know that doom is on the way.
How can appetite be controlled?
The first I will recommend for appetite control is,your Selfcipline. It is a good thing to be self disciplined. Self discipline involves been conscious of what to do, even though no one will pernalise you, when it is wrong or out of hand, you desist from it.
    The Only one that can help to control every kinds of Emotion is The Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the one that brings everything under control through the word of God. Romans 8:13 "For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death(mortify or control) the misdeeds of the body, you will live." One of the misdeeds of the flesh is unnecessary craving (appetite). And the only solution is to subject yourself to the Holy Spirit.
