- So you don't
feel very loving. . . .
- Your feelings
are irrelevant, and you must obey the thing God has said in His
Word.
This is one area where the
believer can rest confidently on behavior and ignore feeling.
If you hold your tongue when you are abused, you have turned
the other cheek. If you have presented the Lord when someone
has abused you, you have returned good for evil.
- It is possible
and as a matter of fact, good, to ignore the emotion and rest
in obedience. He said He would take care of it, and He will.
Many times being honorable is simply
making sure you are not dishonorable.
You don't have to be a sage,
but you do have to be a servant.
