RENEWING THE EMOTIONAL MIND IS HARD BECAUSE IT REQUIRES
HEALING
Renewing your rational mind is relatively easy. You
spend the first twenty years of your life learning how to do it.
Public education put enough material in your rational mind to
last ten lifetimes. Unfortunately, no one taught you how
to renew your emotional mind. No one told you that
God's love is the most powerful force in the universe, and that
God's love can heal damaged emotions.
Renewing the emotional mind is hard because
it requires healing. Education isn't enough.
Chemical dependencies and damaged emotions will never be healed
by taking a class at a university, or by talking to a counselor
who tells you all of the reasons why things will be fine once
you get everything straightened out in your mind. They can
spend years educating your rational mind, and you will still
struggle with your chemical dependencies because your damaged
emotions have not been healed. If you want to treat the
emotional mind, you need the power of God's love, because it's
the definitive cure for damaged emotions.
Only renewal of the emotional mind will
solve the difficult problems of life. God is a specialist
at renewing your emotional mind through the power of his love.
He can heal your emotional wounds, remove your emotional scars,
and wash away your guilt. Although his love will not
change the bad things that happened to you in the past, it will
erase their power. His love will not only point you in the
right direction, it will also give you the power to make the
trip.
