At the core of every human person are their feelings and emotions. At the core of every wound, desire, and expectation are feelings and emotions. Every sin is brought about by reacting to one’s feelings and emotions. The purification of a soul’s emotions is the deepest purification of a soul, the purification of the essence of your being. As you choose to no longer react, nor even act, from your feelings and emotions, your interior gaze is focused on Me, on seeking only God’s Will. It requires a profound interior attentiveness to the deepest stirrings within your being. This deep interior contemplation can only be lived by souls who have entered a life of silence and prayer. You now begin to know yourself in God. You come to understand that nothing good can come from you, but only from God.
—”My Lord, how do you die to all your feelings and emotions, they are part of all men?”
—Your feelings and emotions do not die, but your will discerns them according to God’s Will and for His glory. You choose, for love of Me, to allow the Spirit to align your feelings and emotions to please Me in all things and to aid in the salvation of countless souls. You are no longer driven by your feelings and emotions. You choose to deny yourself solely to please Me in all things.
