MOTION:
How God uses our foolish feelings to move us into His eternal wisdom
"Everything you do comes from (your heart)."
- Proverbs 4:23 (NIRV)
If God uses the foolish things of the world to confound the wise, what can He do with our emotions, if we submit them to Him? If His power is displayed in our weakness, can you imagine what He can do with our feelings?
This book explores different ways God uses Emotion as a tool to give us access to His eternal wisdom. You will learn practical ways to get comfortable with your emotions and to leverage them, by the leading of the Holy Spirit, to unlock the divine wisdom of God for our lives.
​
The points in this book only scratch the surface, but I hope they will whet your appetite for more, and give you the confidence to lean into the power of our emotions to unlock a more powerful life that is rooted in the wisdom of Jesus, and impactful in every aspect of our every day lives.
"But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us."
- 2 Corinthians 4:7 (KJV)
“In a world that often values stoicism and self-reliance, Omotayo’s message is a timely and necessary reminder that our feelings are not to be feared or dismissed. They are, in fact, a divine gift, a means by which God draws us into a deeper relationship with Him and guides us towards His eternal wisdom. MOTION is a treasure trove of spiritual insight and practical wisdom.”
Funmilayo Olaifa, Writer & HR Professional
“MOTION is a timely and refreshing take on the subject of emotions and emotional intelligence. Omotayo's analytical approach draws pertinent parallels between biblical instruction and daily conduct that will challenge any reader's perspective.
This book speaks directly to the heart, it's subject matter, and addresses the value and power of interrogated emotions. It compels us to listen, understand and follow the signposts our emotions erect for us as we journey through all our life relationships.
MOTION is a compelling, mind-altering submission on the power and importance of our emotions.”

“Omotayo teaches us how God’s love is real, relatable, and tangible even, without being preachy. She uses analogies to relate our personal experiences to His love through emotions. Her use of analogies are apt and make for riddles such as “What do thermometers, hunger, and emotions have in common?”. Only five chapters in and I already want to be more in tune with my emotions - not to be in my feelings but because, perhaps, being aware of what they mean can help me respond appropriately to them to make better life decisions. MOTION is filled with nuggets that will keep you snapping your fingers and hmm-ing.”
