Having The Right Mindset (2)

"We take captive every thought to make itobedient to Christ." 2Co 10:5 NIVHow would you describe yourself? Are you naturallypositive, or negative? Are your decisions driven byfaith in God, or by the fear of failure, rejection, orlack? Do you feel good about yourself, or do you putyourself down and feel like a loser? Whatever youranswer may be, this much is certain: The patternsand attitudes that rule your life were not formedovernight-so don't expect an overnight cure. Butyou can make a start by obeying this Scripture: "Setyour minds and keep them set on what is above (thehigher things)" (Col 3:2 AMPC). The Bible refers tothe Christian life as a "walk." "Walk worthy of thevocation wherewith ye are called" (Eph 4:1). "Wewalk by faith, not by sight" (2Co 5:7 NKJV). "Let usalso walk in the Spirit" (Gal 5:25). "Walk in love"(Eph 5:2). Notice, walking is the slowest mode oftransportation there is! God doesn't invite you to flywith Him but to walk with Him. Just put one foot infront of the other and keep walking day by day.When are we most apt to slip and fall? (1) When weare learning to walk. (2) When we are incircumstances we didn't create and over which wehave no control, such as ice and snow. (3) When wefeel drained, tired, and weak. (4) When we getcareless and don't keep our eyes open and stayfocused. Your challenge is twofold: adopting theright mindset and maintaining it. And if you seekGod faithfully, He will help vou to do both thesethings successfully."Adopting the right mindset and maintaining it"Send us Fan MailSupport the showChanging Lives | Building Strong Family | Impacting Our Community For Jesus Christ!
