Tozer on emotion

Some might ask, “Is it possible to have an emotional experience that is not of God?” I should say so. It is entirely possible to get emotional experiences that are not of God. But I believe that true experiences carry an emotional overtone, and for that reason, I have no objection whatever to emotions. I believe the Lord’s people ought to be the happiest and most radiant people in the world, and I believe they ought not to hesitate to speak right out and say “amen” when they feel like it. If it is not just a habit, it is just so much dry wood.—A.W. Tozer, Reclaiming Christianity, 212
