The right ordering of the loves and the regulation of emotions, can I just give everybody a real simple thing?

Try letting go of control. Just let go of control. You're going to be such a less angry person.

Your loves can't be the love of control. Yeah. Woof. Pass.

Okay, welcome back, everybody.

We just are going to keep going here in the studio from last week because we didn't get to the things that we wanted to get to, which is beautiful because I think last week was super, super helpful. I know it was for me

personally. Yes. And so this is part three of a series. Gosh, we're into the middle of May now.

If you haven't heard part one and two, you probably want to do that. I mean, you could just jump in

this week, but you might enjoy it and get more out of it

if you go back and listen to the progression of thought in it. Where we left off was you actually

can regulate your internal world. What an incredibly hopeful thought. You can regulate your thought

life. This week, emotions and desires slash your loves.

But before we go there, let's take our pause.

Lord Jesus, would you help me tune in right now?

Help me tune in.

What is my condition?

Just begin tuning in.

Don't force this, friends, but just pay attention to your body right now. Are you

tense? It's your stomach upset? Is your heart racing? Just tune in. tune in to your emotions

right now. Lord, what is my condition right now? Is it peace and well-being? Is it union and communion? For most of us, the answer is

not yet. No. And so that's why we pause to give everything back to you, every person, every loved one, every care, every concern.

Cast all your cares upon Him is the invitation in Scripture.

And so just do it. Just begin casting your cares upon him right now.
