Wed—14 March –Learning to control negative emotions..

Interesting again.. was reading the Happiness book by Dr AR Bernard..man.. the topic of the day reali caught my attention.. God is speaking again.. amazing..yest, I was a little down coz did a lot of untrue changes to my students napfa results, helping them pass in a sense but more of “helping” myself achieve the KPI set by my dept..felt like a cheat man.. worst still.. don feel so much now as I change the results.. think my heart and conscience died-ed partially..went home.. wantd to pray..but think I gave myself the excuse to just sleep off and din pray..

This morn wen I woke up..i prayed.. told God how I felt.. think this event made me decide that I will train my classes for their napfa test so they will pass based on their own capabilities.

Coming back to the book.. felt it’s a word in season again coz I need to learn to control negative feelings that arise..but think this verse struck me the most..

My dear brothers and sisters, always be willing to listen and slow to speak. Do not become angry easily, because anger will not help you live the right kind of life God wants.

James 1:19-20 NCV

When I read the verse I was like…yes, I will learn to listen and be slow to anger coz quick to anger is not the right kind of life that God wants for me..

1 portion of the book asked “who’s pulling your emotional strings? Are you allowing highly emotional people or highly charged situations to dictate your moods, or are you wiser than that?....Your emotions will inevitably change; God will not. So trust Him completely. When you do, you’ll be surprised at how quickly those negative feelings can evaporate into thin air.

Wen I was reading this portion, I was like yeah.. somebody’s reali affecting my emot too much and I ought to be self control.. yeah.. I am learning to be slow to speak, slow to anger and quick to listen..cool..i felt challenged that i want to be wiser than all that's affecting my emot man..yeah.. gotta depend on God too.. coz without Christ, i wouldn't be who i am today.. all thanks to his grace..Thank you Jesus..
