Right and wrong emotions

Some days the excitement and joy don't come easily. My mind can wonder and if I am not careful my mind will take me to negative places. I will find myself wondering if my excitement of teaching and pursuing my calling is pointless. I wonder if this is all that there is to my life. Then I remember the joy that comes with each new morning. I remember how emotions come and go. I remember how happy and blessed I am. It's funny how good you can be feeling about life one moment and then bad the next. Learn from the experience of wasting time on wrong emotions. Recognize these emotions and ward them off by thinking of all The Lord is doing in your life at the time.
