Book Description
God Gave You Emotions on Purpose! Our emotions play a vital role in living happy, healthy, successful lives. All emotions, from love and joy to anger and fear, have an important part to play in understanding ourselves and others. They help us discover the wonders of this life as well as warn us when we are in danger. But this diversity of feelings is meant to complement our life, not determine it! In this life-transforming book, Joyce Meyer reveals powerful truths from God's Word that will help you learn to manage all of your emotions in the right direction. Through hilarious illustrations and real-life applications, Joyce delivers the keys to keeping your emotions in the proper place while allowing the Spirit of God to lead and direct you. Dynamic scriptural insights are included on topics such as: * How not to be led by feelings * Codependency * Forgiveness * Mood swings * Healing for damaged emotions * Depression * And much more! Don't allow your feelings to determine your destiny! Instead, manage your emotions to complement and enhance your attitude for a joyful, victorious life!

Super-Inspiring!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Managing Your Emotions: Instead of Your Emotions Managing You (Hardcover)
I love this book! Joyce Meyer's words are sincere, passionate, and straight to the point. This book really opened my eyes to the way I was living my life. It empowered me, gave me hope, and convinced me that although we may not deserve everything that happens to us in our lives, we can do things to increase our chances of making it better. This book as well as this other tremendous book called "The Ever-Transcending Spirit" by Toru Sato helped me understand this and take responsibility for my own life. Thanks to these books, I am now living a new life! Thank you Joyce! I hope that many people become inspired by these types of books!

SPIRITUAL THERAPY,
By H (Brooklyn, New York, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Managing Your Emotions: Instead of Your Emotions Managing You (Hardcover)
I had been watching Joyce Meyer on television for many years. Her background of abuse and emotional turmoil was something that drew me to her. Emotionally, I had no connections. Not long ago I was in a season of emotional winter. Everything looked dark, cold and dreary. I had confessed many scriptures, read many books, but could not shake off my winter of discontent. I hate to admit it- but I was depressed. During this season I joined a book club and "Managing Your Emotions" was one of the books I selected. When it arrived I was a little hesitant to open it because I did not know how it was going to challenge me. I started reading it and I was able to identify with some destructive cycles that I was going around in. I was always getting my feelings hurt, feeling rejected, feeling alone and unwanted. Joyce went through those cycles especially in dealing with her husband, Dave. As I read the book I started to realize that if she overcame all of those things then I could too. There was no quick fix but she had to get in the word of God and start to believe what God said about her. She believed that God loved her and that he had good plans for her. She had to confess the scriptures daily and over a period of time she learned how to manage or take control over her feelings. One thing that she mentioned in her book that was extremely powerful for me was the fact that God gave us these emotions but we needed to know when to express them. I learned that I could get angry, only I should not stay in anger because it produces bitterness. This book really helped me and reading it was like a therapy session. Everyone who is breathing, has friends, families, children, co-workers etc. can benefit from reading this book. It might not be for you but it can help you to help someone else. It is information we all can use. (1-26-2004)

Incredibly helpful,
By A Customer
This review is from: Managing Your Emotions (Hardcover)
I have struggled for pretty much my whole Christian life with finding balance emotionally. I seem to swing between two extremes. I either go numb and try to deny my feelings or I dwell too much on my feelings and allow them to overwhelm me. This book gave me hope that things could be different and that I'm not alone in my struggles. I very much appreciate the personal stories and struggles Joyce shares in this book. Especially since I could relate to so many of them. I truly believe that God has given Joyce Meyer a powerful gift for words and a great anointing on her ministry. This book has truly changed my life. The advice she gives is both practical and biblical. This book is a must read for any Christian who is struggling to overcome emotional hurts and struggles. I definitely intend to read more of Joyce Meyer's books in the future.
