A song called "Gauges " is echoing in my mind. I wonder if I can find it on YouTube, I don 't even remember the name of the band.It talks about our emotions being our gauges which tell us what is going on inside of us. Some days I have real roller coaster rides. I 'd rather run on a level train track than a roller coaster - but its all a part of being human- created in God 's image. God feels joy, sadness, anger and remorse and so on - it will become a very long Bible study if we get in to that.
Corrie Ten Boom said, ' Sometimes I am a thermometer-with all the needs around me, I go down.
But we must be thermostats not thermometers. A thermostat feels the coldness and immediately restores the missing heat by bringing the room in contact with the heater.That is what we must do".
The world in which I live is very needy. O Lord keep me close to your heart that although I am alert to the needs around me I will not be depressed by what I see, for You are able to make me act and help.
...Your heavenly Father knoweth that you have need of all these things.
Matthew 6;32 KJB (BIBLE)

2 Fertilize my soul:
That is yet another remarkable Corrie ten Boom quote! This post is exactly what I was trying to reflect on in my last comment!
You are right Amrita, Christians should be the most sensitive people for needs of their neighbours.
