It might be music, prayer, empathy when seeing someone in need. It be poetry, pro’s or a good film. We are creative, emotional men and women, made in the image of God. Never think of emotion as a weakness, in God’s Kingdom it’s more commonly known as a strength.
2 Corinthians 5:17 says ‘When someone becomes a Christian, he becomes a brand new person inside. He is not the same anymore. A new life has begun!’. (TLB)
It’s no wonder then, through the lens of Christ we see the world in a different way. It’s OK to to be moved, don’t be ashamed or embarrassed, have faith that the stirring of your heart could be motivated by the Holy Spirit, listen to Him, follow His lead. You’ll never know where that journey might lead you unless you follow how you feel, there might be profound outcomes along the way.
Quote
When God moves you, follow his leading, beautiful things happen.
Prayer
Lord if my heart feels like stone, move me Lord, touch my life that I may serve your Kingdom, Amen.
Action Point Write a little journal of your experiences. It’s good to look back over time and see what God has done.
