Metro Life Church Podcast

Through this series we’ve discussed how to take control of our emotions so that they don’t take control of us. Your ability to face trials and challenges with a right heart and attitude will open you up to God’s restoration. Not giving up because of what seems like defeat; but rather, dusting off, pulling yourself together, and trying again – gives God an opportunity to turn your tragedy into a message of triumph. God responds to faith, not emotion. No matter what we go through, it doesn’t change who God is – He is always faithful. Gratitude opens up our heart to receive, and God’d hand to give. We must learn to be thankful no matter what emotions we are feeling. Happiness is circumstantial – joy is supernatural. What you do in difficult times will determine the longevity of that time. If you will choose to give God thanks – even in difficult times – you will see triumph through the trial.
