Your Thought Life

It is interesting to me, how we don’t realize that how we think, affects our lives. We make most of our decisions based on what we ponder. Consider how much you dwell on a particular thought and at some point you make plans on how you will make it happen. 

You possibly have thought on a matter so intently, that you start making hand motions or your foot moves as if you are actually doing what you are only thinking about. Your thoughts are actually very powerful. It is the genesis of any action you take.

Books have been written on what effects our thinking can accomplish. Possibly one of the better known books on the subject is “Think And Grow Rich” written by Napoleon Hill. The book was first released in the 1930’s and changed the trajectory of many lives. Many of the concepts are found in the Word of God, the writer only acknowledges the fact in rare mentions.

Another source that is out there is the Master Key System. It follows the same concept as the book “Think And Grow Rich.” This system mentions more scriptural concepts than does Think And Grow Rich and in many places actually quotes the scripture without giving where it is quoted.

My point here is that we need to study the Word of God and find all of the nuggets that God has placed in there for us. Including Romans 12:2, “And be not conformed to this world: but be you transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."

Consider also, II Timothy 1:7, “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” Another verse to reinforce this point is, Proverbs 4:23 “Keep your heart (mind) with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.”


As we can clearly see, how we think, what we ponder on is incredibly important. Your thought life is where your life is headed. Be careful what you think about.

Perspective

In each situation in our lives we react a certain way to what is happening, in many cases reacting differently than other people. Why do we react differently than others? It is perspective!     Perspective is defined as “a particular attitude toward or way of regarding something; a point of view.” In a light hearted way, (in some cases) a football game comes to mind. You may be pulling for your favorite team and your good friend is pulling for the opposing team. Each of you are pulling for your team with all your might. At the end of the game, one of the teams prevails while the other team is dejected over the loss.   If your team won and your friends team lost. You are thrilled, your friend not so much. From your perspective it is awesome to have a win, your friend isn’t happy at all. Why? It is from the perspective you are coming from. You may have a particular point of view concerning a matter and many around you don’t share your view. You think in the manne...
