The book Runaway Emotions narrows the topics down to
eight main emotions: embarrassment, loneliness, frustration, worry, anger,
guilt, discontentment and depression. As
humans, we cannot avoid any of these emotions but the author provides a better
understanding of why verses what is taught in the Bible. The key issue is we all sin to some degree. How we approach forgiveness to God and other
others is the key to resolving many of these emotions. Some will come and go, others we will
struggle with and they will occur repeatedly.
The author goes into detail about how God is forgiving and the struggles
we face asking for forgiveness. The
author provides examples from the Bible and other related stories. To fully appreciate the book read a chapter, then
take time to compare how you handle that emotion currently. You might be surprised and realize you could
be doing things differently. This could help
you physically, emotionally, spiritually and socially. Will your problems all be resolved after reading
this book or within a few days? No but
it does give you the foundation to approach these emotions from a better-prepared
Christian point of view. Making this
type of correction in your life will take time, dedication and faith.
I received a free copy of this book from BookSneeze in exchange
for my honest review of the book.
