Use these prompts, write them down, either by regular journalling, or answer them out loud. Then pray; ask God to take them from you. Imagine each of your feelings, thoughts and passions as rocks or boulders that you are carrying then imagine Jesus walking/ standing next to you and as you pray hand each of these rocks over to Him one by one. Notice how your arms and shoulders get lighter as you pass each of them over to Him. Don’t forget to end the prayer by thanking Him for taking these off of you.
We’re not meant to carry these on our own. So, let Him help you by taking them out of your hands.
If they appear in your arms again, which they might do, just repeat the process; handing them over to Him one by one.
(Do you want to know more on how to work through your emotions, thoughts & behaviours and how to hand them over to God, focus on Him instead and improve resilience?

I don’t think people realize that like God, we are a spirit, but with a soul and body, why we need His Spirit guiding ours to overcome intellect and emotions, and the flesh. Great post.
We are, exactly, Amen! Thank u. Blessings x
