Feelings are not to be feared, smash down, and compressed.

Nor are they to be used to manipulate, scare, or oppress others.

God gave you feelings to help you know where you are at all times in relationship to His presence and peace.

Just as a star on an amusement park map says, you are here.

So you know how to find your way to the enchanted castle.

Feelings tell you where you are in relationship to God and His kingdom.

And feelings help you know what you need when you are tempted by your enemy.

If the emotion of sadness is followed by a feeling of loneliness,

you can sense the heaviness in your chest and go to God for comfort and companionship.

Or you can reach out and call a friend.

Feeling your feelings and going to God is one way you take heart whenever you feel trouble.

In the world you will have tribulation, but take heart. I have overcome the world.

John chapter 16, verse 33.
