Feelings or Truth?

We can’t look to our feelings to determine truth. We must look to truth to rein in our feelings. (Lysa TerKeurst, writer)

“If it feels good, it must be right,” seems to be one of today’s mantras. We make a lot of decisions on the basis of how we feel about opportunities or relationships, but feelings are fickle. It’s far better to make our choices on the basis of our priorities and well-thought-out values. Truth and reality must be the foundation for good and effective choices.

Truthful words stand the test of time. . . . Get the truth and never sell it; also get wisdom, discipline, and good judgment. (Proverbs 12:19; 23:23)
