THE HOLY SPIRIT STRIKES THE BALANCE

The Holy Spirit Strikes The Balance Between Your Life and Your Emotions
Now that you are living by the spirit of God, you are no longer a natural man. It is natural for your Emotions to rise in anger if you are abused. It is natural as a man for your Emotions to rise sexually when you see a naked woman. All of these are natural. Because your soul responds to whatever is leading in your Life(Meaning if you are ruled by flesh which devil has access to, then your soul will always respond to negative Emotions). When the body transfers the signal to the soul and the spirit(Holy Spirit) is not there to strike, then the soul accepts and implement the action. In essence, it is the Holy Spirit that creates this balance. If you don't have an intimate relationship with the Holy Spirit, your Emotions will always mess you up. Don't get it wrong, we have positive Emotions created in you by God, but remember that everything has been polluted by devil after the fall of man, so, even if it is a positive emotion, there is need to temper it, so that you don't become excessive (Galatians 5vs16).
    Does the Holy Spirit works with Emotions? No,Emotions are bodily(fleshy) chemical reactions while Holy Spirit is a supernatural Spirit, The Spirit of God in man and on earth. If you submit to Him, he moves your emotions over. (Romance 8vs13b). The Holy Spirit through your relationship with him will transform your life and you will realize that you can no longer respond when you are provoked because, the moment flesh sends the signal to the soul, the spirit also sends the word of God and the word God with fire eats up the signal of the flesh then, you won't react.
    Your life( Your spiritual life, the life you live) and your Emotions can not be balanced without The Holy Spirit. Look at David the second king in Israel when he was been chased by his enemy Saul. One fateful day He saw his enemy Saul sleeping off, I think that's a good day, he should just kill him without hesitation, but when he saw his enemy Saul, the Emotions rise(anger to kill King Saul) and the word of God countered it, "touch not my anointed and do my prophet no arm". Again when the Emotions rised in Jesus Christ at Gethsemane,( Matt.36-39) The word of God came "Thy will be  done on earth as it is in heaven".
     When Holy Spirit comes and rules in your life, He replaces your Emotions with Compassion(The kind that God created in the beginning), you have compassion on people, you can't do any evil, then your tears will be meaningful, maybe when a loved one dies or you find a friend in trouble. Then the Holy Spirit makes your Love for people a Compassionate one, such that God has for humanity and you will be Compassionate about loving people around you, not only your spouse. Let me add this, it is only The Passionate love given by God that holds a marriage, not the Emotional love.
      So, it is the Holy Spirit that strikes the balance between your life and your Emotions. That is, your life in the Spirit is Emotionally balanced because it is controlled and paddled by The Spirit of God. The Holy Spirit.

THE MIRROR: IDENTITY AND SELFHOOD

Identity. It’s the essence of who you are—your personality, the core of your being. Selfhood, on the other hand, is the expression of that identity, the way you present yourself to the world. Think back to a time when you had to show your identity card. Do you remember the reaction of the person you handed it to? Likely, they nodded in approval, having seen all the necessary information about you on that card. Your identity, in that moment, was defined by the details captured on that small piece of plastic. But identity is more than just what's written on a card. It’s how you define yourself and how others perceive you. It’s the name you give yourself, the image you project, and the way people recognize you. Selfhood is often conveyed through three key aspects: - Dressing (Your Appearance) - Actions (What You Do and How You Do It) - Speech (The Words You Speak and How You Utter Them)  Dressing (Your Appearance) There’s a common saying: "Appearance shows the manner."

The Greatest Goal

When the ball enters the net, they say it's a goal! And the loosing team feel defeated forgetting that they've got the greatest goal.  Same to a man who has all his goals lain down and strategically pulling his efforts towards the goal but to realize at the end that, his goals can't be achieved, for known or unknown reasons. He looses strength. At times, he can feel like it's over. But the truth remains that it's not over until it is over. He's got the greatest goal.       Really, a goal is the achievement toward which effort is directed. And billions are the "I want to", "by God's grace I will", "in fact, I must" in the speeches of every man, especially at the beginning of every matter, but strength wanes and the story changes maybe in the middle of the road. Because all efforts put towards the achievement of the goals seem to be less affective. The truth is, no man has control over whatever happens and will happen....
