You Can Successfully Fight Negative Feelings - HOW PAUL DEALT WITH NEGATIVE FEELINGS

 Paul was  also able to fight negative emotions successfully because he believed that the ransom was a gift to him personally. (Galatians 2:20; read Ephesians 1:7.)As a result, he could confidently trust in Jehovah's forgiveness through Jesus Christ. (Romans 7:24, 25) Despite his past errors and his imperfections, Paul was able to "render sacred to God" with joy. HEBREWS 912-14.

Like Paul, we met feel that there is always a battle going on from within. It may be about what we think, what we do, or what we say. We too may feel like saying. 'Miserable person that I am!' A sister in her 20's named Eliza says this about her personal struggle:  "It is encouraging for me  to think about Paul's situation. I am relieved that I am not the only one who feel this way. It is another reminder that Jehovah knows what his people are prgorg through." What can we do so that, like Paul, we can have a clean conscience and rejoice despite having negative feelings?
