Coldplay - A Rush Of Blood To The Head

Ephesians 4

Therefore, after you have gotten rid of lying, Each of you must tell the truth to your neighbor because we are parts of each other in the same body. ²⁶ Be angry without sinning. Don’t let the sun set on your anger.²⁷ Don’t provide an opportunity for the devil. ²⁸ Thieves should no longer steal. Instead, they should go to work, using their hands to do good so that they will have something to share with whoever is in need.

This great ballad by Coldplay has always taken me back to a scene in the movie Forest Gump.
Remember when Ginny, as a young woman, happened upon her childhood home?
When she saw it...she was instantly taken back to her childhood; to the horrors and abuse of her father.
Just by seeing a memory of the past...her emotions were ignited.
Enraged...she started throwing rocks at the windows.
Eventually, Forest and Ginny were both throwing rocks...!

Later, when Forest was a gazillionaire, he had the entire lot leveled with a bulldozer.

Just the mention of certain things can take us to an uncomfortable place that elevates our blood pressure. Our sense of melancholy; bad memories stupid mistakes, regrets, etc.; can overwhelm us at times...out of the blue...we get a rush of blood to the head

Emotions are important for life in this human experience. As a spiritual being, its a must that we check our emotions with the spirit of God that lives within us; lest we lose our emotions to something radical and out of control. Our temple is His home for a reason...!

Instead of a knee jerk reaction...we take our raw feelings and baptize them. LOL
If we check in with the Lord, He can use our wild energy to bring about something good for us... and the Kingdom of God.
