Renewing my mind

So ever since I discovered Joyce Meyer had all her shows/preaching’s on her website, I've been addicted! And it's so good to listen to her speak truth. One of the principles I've immediately put to practice is the renewing of my mind.




She quoted Proverbs 23:7 For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he (this is KJV, a version I NEVER read.lol)



I never realized how much power my thoughts had until now. I've always believed that if something happened there was some reason God made it happen, but I didn't realized that changing the way I think could change my life. So I've been checking every thought that is questionable and trying to think the way Jesus would think. And I've actually been seeing results. And I know it's because I've been thinking positive Godly thoughts and continually being in the Word. I hope this makes sense, because sometimes I can't explain things relating to God so clearly. It's like this...I know what it is in my heart but I can't always put it into words people can understand. So bear with me.



Another thing I just recently staring working on (meaning today) is forgiveness. Yup. I used to hold grudges and although I don't hold grudges anymore it’s still hard for me to forgive people that have hurt me. So I am trying to forgive my parents wholeheartly with everything in me. I feel like this is the beginning of total freedom because I have always tried to run away from them because I felt hurt around them. So forgiving them will set me free from that bondage.



Lastly please check out Joyce Meyer if you haven't already. She gives out free tapes and books sometimes and many of the books she sells on her sites are OVERWHEMINGLY discounted! joycemeyer.org
In Christ,
Friend Of God
