I’m an extremely emotional individual; I always have been. Even as a young child, I felt everything with extreme depth and poignancy. Through a formula of heart-hardening ingredients, I was taught that my emotions were arrogant back seat drivers. They called out from the back row of the minivan, but reason was at the wheel and only seldom did he make a wrong turn.
But then I met Jesus in another man’s life in college. I’ve been un-learning and re-learning ever since. One of the ways I’ve been flying upside down unawares, was in thinking that emotions played a tertiary role in life.
