I remember when I first got into recovery, I was terrified of all the things I was feeling because I never really had words to explain them. But also, I was told in my childhood that I was supposed to focus on my faith instead of my feelings. I know now that faith and feelings go hand in hand instead of needing to bump up against each other. It's important that we accept our feelings to be able to move through them with faith in a healthy way. A lot of the world makes it acceptable to numb our feelings when that's the opposite of what we should do. This week, we discuss scripture focusing on faith and surrendering our feelings.
