To ignore, repress, or dismiss our feelings is to fail to listen to the stirrings of the Spirit within our emotional life. Jesus listened. In John's Gospel we are told that Jesus was moved with the deepest emotions (11:33)...

They were sensitive antennae to which He listened carefully and through which He perceived the will of His Father for congruent speech and action.
