Exodus 5:22-6:1 Then Moses went back to the Lord and protested, “Why have you brought all this trouble on your own people, Lord? Why did you send me? Ever since I came to Pharaoh as your spokesperson, he has been even more brutal to your people. And you have done nothing to rescue them!” Then the Lord told Moses, “Now you will see what I will do to Pharaoh. When he feels the force of my strong hand, he will let the people go. In fact, he will force them to leave his land!”
Do you see, Child? Did I get angry with Moses when he brought his complaint to me? Did I react in anger when he challenged why I was doing what I was doing? No. I understand. You do not know why I do what I do. You do not comprehend what I am thinking, you do not see the end result of My plans. You do not yet know that you can trust Me in all things, in every decision, in every action and every seeming inaction. You do not have My mind. Therefore, your partial ability to see, your partial ability to understand, your inability to see into the future cause you to react with emotions. I can take it when you ask Me why. I can take it when you are frustrated and do not understand. I can take it when you doubt because you have no way of seeing how I will unravel the messes, how I will redeem the seemingly irredeemable circumstances. I understand that you are limited in all of these things, therefore I am able to withstand the emotions you unleash upon Me. Your temporary emotional outbursts are not able to cancel out the state of your heart. I know your heart. I know you love Me. I know that deep down and as much as you are humanly capable, I know you trust Me. I know your heart. So when your emotions overwhelm you, I am ok with that. Bring them to Me. Trust Me with the emotions I gave you. Those emotions came from Me. I gave you emotions so that you could work through the trials and problems and celebrations and victories and all of those things you will experience in your temporal life. They are the valve on your pressure cooker of a life. They allow the steam to escape so that you do not explode or do irrevocable harm. It really is all ok. Your emotions will not cancel out My love nor My plans. Ever. To the contrary, they allow you to clean out your heart and mind when life overwhelms you in any way. If you keep them bottled up, if you keep them inside, the damage begins – damage that, if left to eat away at your heart and mind and soul could lead you away from Me. Process. Celebrate. Grieve. Talk to Me. But do not allow your emotions to rule your life. Give them to Me. I will deal with them. Then, allow me to strengthen and comfort you. Put on your amor and get back into the fray, just as Moses did.
