Triggered

We've all been there. Emotions come out of nowhere, and not the ones we want. Frustration, jealousy, anxiety, discouragement. And the next thing we know, it feels like they're in control... of how we feel about ourselves, how we relate to others, even how we experience life in that moment. These emotions aren't bad or wrong, but how we respond to them can make all the difference. When we try to deal with them on our own, we often feel buried by them. But when they prompt us to go to God, we are able to face them with His power, wisdom, and peace. Instead of life triggering these emotions in us, these emotions can become a trigger for us to pursue God and discover how good and sufficient He is.
