Timothy Keller Quotes About Emotions

Quotes about: Emotions

• Every single emotion you have should be processed in prayer.

  Timothy Keller

  Prayer, Emotion, Should

• Every one of our sinful actions has a suicidal power on the faculties that put that action forth. When you sin with the mind, that sin shrivels the rationality. When you sin with the heart or the emotions, that sin shrivels the emotions. When you sin with the will, that sin destroys and dissolves your willpower and your self-control. Sin is the suicidal action of the self against itself. Sin destroys freedom because sin is an enslaving power.

  Timothy Keller

  Heart, Suicidal, Self

• What the heart most wants, the mind finds reasonable, the will finds doable, and the emotions find desirable.

  Timothy Keller

  Heart, Mind, Want

• Remember that according to the Bible, the heart is not primarily the emotions but rather the seat of our fundamental commitments and trusts, and therefore it is the control center of the whole life. So to preach to the heart means to go right for the commanding commitments of people's lives that drive their desires, thinking, feeling, and action.
