Unlike the animal world, God gave us reason (Mind). Instinct isn’t enough for us to live out his mission for each of us. He gave us emotions (Body) as a warning signal. That’s a good thing – until we use emotions to make decisions (Soul/Heart/Will). Ultimately it comes down to our will as to which way to choose. The soul wraps up everything in our being and is displayed in our will to follow a certain path. So it comes down to choices. It begins with thoughts (Mind). We can’t change our emotional reaction to some event – but we can change how we reason through it. We can change what thoughts we take captive. Let’s try to focus on good and pure thoughts – it will help overcome emotions.
