Fooled by a Feeling

Good morning on this fine fall day. Door County Maple is the flavor of the day in my coffee cup..

Genesis 3:1
Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God actually say, ‘You shall not eat of any tree in the garden’?”

Many people search for God by feelings. I believe Eve felt that she needed an apple. I believe Eve felt she had a right to the tree.  Eve might say. "I was fooled by a feeling, now I am feeling like a fool."

Proverbs 12:15
The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man listens to advice.

Proverbs 14:12-13
There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death. Even in laughter the heart may ache, and the end of joy may be grief.

On the other hand!
Psalm 119:105
Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.

Feelings! Or faith built upon God's promises found within His word?
Trust in God by faith, not by feelings.

God bless,
Marty
