What is The Definition of Emotional Baggage?



What is the definition of Emotional Baggage?

        The definition of emotional baggage is the weaknesses, struggles, and failures that bring us down in our personal lives.  Sometimes are weaknesses are known as baggage.  We all have different things that we are going through in our lives.  Some of us are struggling with addiction, death, depression, failure, and divorce for example. 
        We need to learn how to sort through our personal baggage in a positive manner.  We tend to hide ourselves from our situation. For instance, I have a tendency to shut completely down whenever I feel overwhelmed.  I am a type of person who is afraid of failure.  I struggle through failures and emotional baggage in my personal life. 

        We need to be honest with ourselves.  We all have to deal with the reality of failure.  There are times when I have a tendency to get locked into my decisions.  I am a person who struggles with guilt.  I realize that at this time that I tend to struggle with depression and emotional abuse from years past.  Yesterday October 13, 2018, was my youngest grandmother 5th anniversary of her death.  My grandmother passed away on Sweetest Day of 2013.  During that time, I was attending the Ohio State vs Iowa College Football game when I got a call from my nephew indicating that my grandmother has passed away.  I felt very disappointed and depressed. 

        Further, I have a tendency to dwell on negative things.  My family members encouraged me to remain positive.  God knows where we are headed and where we are going.  Our baggage is buried so deep inside of us.  All of us bury feelings that is transformed into anger.  We need to know who we are in Christ.  Do you know what we are going through does not disqualify us?  We need to sort through our bag of emotions.  God asks us to progress rather than fail.  God wants progress rather than perfection.
        Moreover, I am the oldest in my family.  I am the first person in my family to graduate from high school and college.  I am the first person among my siblings to get baptized in church.  I feel much better right now because God loves me and He accepts me for the person that I am.  I am beginning to realize that my mind does not function in the same way it used to be.  As adults, we carry a whole lot of feelings inside. 

        Finally, I want to inform all of you that I am happy to be a Child of the Most High God.  I know that I am a person who suffers from a mental illness.  I know who I am in Christ Jesus right now.  We have to get grounded in God first and foremost.  I am happy right now to share my personal testimony with everyone.  I am a person who is highly intelligent, kind, compassionate, respectful, helpful, brave, bold, and awesome when it comes to Jesus Christ.  Jesus Christ is my personal Savior.  Thank you very much Lord Jesus for saving me, protecting me, and accepting me for who I am as a person.  Thank You Lord Jesus for giving me integrity and love. Thank You Lord Jesus for giving me a second chance at life.
        In conclusion, I am going to let God give me double for my trouble.  I am a living epistle for God.  He gives us His very own righteousness.  I Thank You Lord for forgiving me of all of my sins.  I am anointed, I am forgiven, and I am right with God.  The personal wrongness in my life is gone.  I am happy and free right now.  Righteousness cannot be purchased.  We must be in agreement with God.  I give all of my problems to God.  God can take anything and do something with it.  Agree with God about yourself and your future.  Thank You Lord Jesus for setting me free.

Have You Ever Wrestled with God

Have you ever wrestled with Satan in the same way that the Man of God Wrestled with Jacob?        I have a very important question to ask everyone right now.  Have you ever wrestled with Satan in the same way that Jacob wrestled with the Man of God?  I am asking this question because I had a flashback recently.  It happened in 1974 when I got into a fist fight with a 15-year-old boy.  We got into a fist fight over a black fisted pick that people used to comb their hair.  I fought this boy because he threatened my manhood over something that he could have purchased for himself.               Next, I fought with this boy because he threatened me with violence.  I might have been younger, but that poor brother was limping after I got finished with him.  He got away on his bike.  I want to inform all of you that this boy was 6 years older than me.  I want to say that I might not have wre...

Matthew 5:23-24!! What does this means to all people?         Good Day Everyone!! This is an essay that pertains to the Beatitudes inside of Matthew 5 th -7 th  Chapters.  I have selected two of the Bible verses just to place emphasis.  First, I want to say that this is not very easy for some people to apologize to another person, especially after you have done something wrong to that person.  For me personally, I want to inform all of you that my baby brother called me a homosexual because I am responsible for paying my other brother and a friend’s phone bill each month.  I understand that my brother called me out of my name without just cause.         Next, I want to inform everyone that my brother was out of line for calling me out of my name.  I have confronted him about the problem, but he refuses to reconcile.  Therefore, I am praying for him each and every single day of the we...
