A few examples:

Warming your hands in front of a fire

Falling in love


Mine are:

Falling onto my bed after a long and tiring day

Gulping down a drink when super thirsty
Enjoying by faith the sure promises of Scripture to the believer in the Lord Jesus; these indeed go beyond feelings which can come and go.

Hearing God speak to me
When God speaks to us it such an amazing feeling, how we can feel his presence as if he standing right next to us.

But what affects that connection between us and him? Is there anything that can stop him from speaking to us?

So basically God fulfilling his promises to us?

You don't have kids?

To crush your enemies. See them driven before you. And to hear the lamentations of their women.
Revenge is such a beautiful feeling.

I think that Jesus taught that revenge is wrong, when he was saying how we should not 'return the punch' but isn't it only justice in doing so?

I think we should trust what the Lord Jesus says far more than our feelings.

It's a movie quote

Many things perhaps, but it seems to me that the root of them all is a lack of humility before Him and people.

Important point about humility; and doctrinally it;s good to link this for example with Philippians 2, where it speaks of the Lord Jesus having 'humbled Himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the Cross'.

Do you think that the Devil knew that he should not have killed Jesus?
