Mind Renewal

Our mind is part of our soul.  The soul is the mind, will, and emotions. We have a choice on what we think about, what we let into our eyes and ears, what we participate in, what words we speak, and whether we let our emotions move through us and express them in a healthy way, or let them rule us. We are choosing to think on things that are "true", "noble", "right", "pure", "lovely", and "praiseworthy" (Phil 4:8 NIV).   We can have emotions, they are not good or bad, but they don't control us. 

 

 We are choosing to speak words of life over ourselves and others!   We can decide to focus on positive emotions, and praise God and celebrate through them, together and on our own!   We are choosing to laugh, and learn truth, and replace lies with truth.

​

Praise is such a great way to do that; and worship!  We can choose to turn our attention to thanksgiving, praise, and all our blessings, and there isn't any more room in our thoughts for negative things.
