(See Romans 12:2.)īut I believe sometimes we blame our thoughts when our problem goes deeper.įor example, as Christ-followers, we may look at 2 Corinthians 10:5 and assume that our final, great battleground resides in our thought-life. Our thoughts are undeniably important and God has a design for our thought life. God talks about the importance of our thought life all throughout the scriptures. It’s amazing how our thoughts can change things. And she began to study her facts with renewed vigor. “Mommy, I CAN’T do it! I’ll never be able to do it! I don’t know my multiplication!” In a God-given moment of patience, I looked at her and in true, cheerleader-like fashion (motions and happy facial expressions included), I said “you may not know it now, but you WILL!” I began to chant this cheer until her look of distress gave way to giggles of delight. Just the other day, one of my sweet daughters expressed her struggle with math. The things we think about can impact our lives in a significant and sometimes life-altering way. Have you ever heard the statements, “you are what you think.” Or, “if you think you can’t, then you can’t!” These statements and many like them, reflect the observation that our thoughts are powerful. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is-his good, pleasing and perfect will.” - Romans 12:2
“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
