If We Think Differently, We Will Live Differently
The way we think determines the way we live. If we think we’re going to be defeated, we’re going to have an attitude that leads to defeat. If, however, we choose to think about God’s promises, we’re going to have a faith-filled, expectant attitude. Yesterday, we may have let our minds focus on the negative — what we couldn't do, how badly we’ve messed up, all the things that could go wrong — but today we can submit our minds to the Word of God and choose the thoughts we're going to dwell on. With the help of the Holy Spirit, we can change our thoughts today, choosing a better, more positive, more fulfilling life. God will help us to fix our thoughts on His promises as we spend more time in His presence. He will teach us to reject negativity and live by faith, with the expectation that where He leads, we will follow.
