"sadness" is not a holy emotion

Why do we think that sadness can be such a "holy" emotion?  Because we haven't been told otherwise.  But here's the real scoop.  Sadness is not a characteristic of Father God.  He is Love and Joy and Peace.  There is not one moment of sadness IN Him.  And when we are IN Him, we cannot live in sadness.
Really?  That boggled my mind when He first told me.
Then He went farther and explained that ALL love, and ALL joy and ALL peace come from Him.  There is no love or joy or peace that come from the dark world.  None.

Then He went even farther.  I have a choice.  I can choose what I feel.  I am not subject to whims of emotions flitting through my mind and my heart - unless I just stand by and LET THEM.  But, if I stand up and REJECT the ones that come from the dark world, then they have to leave me alone.  They might not go immediately because I might not be convinced that I CAN reject them.  But if I perform this act from sheer obedience to what He told me; then I will begin to see it happen.  And the more it happens the more I will do it.
That world of "no more tears" is right here and right now.  It isn't somewhere in the future after Jesus returns.  He already came.  He already lives right here in my heart.  His power and love and joy are already seated inside me.  The only difference is my choice - activating it.  I have to make this choice and I have to back up that choice with my words.  Speaking it out loud tells the angels and the world of darkness where I stand.
Wow!  It works.
