Good
Morning!
We are talking about keeping the
"clutter" out of lives, so that we can eliminate all of the stress
and frustration that comes from "complicating" when we could
be simplifying. This is how we keep the enemy from
"stealing" our peace and joy! We have talked about applying
this principle to several different areas of our life, but now, we are talking
about doing this with our "thought life".
Think about this..........do you ever go
back and "rehash" past conversations that you have had with someone?
(i.e. Do you find yourself thinking....."when they said that,
I should have said this, and then if they said this, then I
would have said that.") Do you ever
"rehearse" future conversations that you plan to have with someone?
(i.e. do you find yourself thinking....."when I say this,
they are going to say that, and then I am going to say this............can
any one "relate" to this?
The bad part about all of this is:
if you allow yourself to do this, then when you go to bed at night, the
"enemy" will use this like a "tape" and will play it over
and over again in your mind! What happens to your "peace and
joy" when you are on this demonic "merry-go-round"? I
have good news...........there is a way for you to STOP this vicious cycle,
and I will talk about that tomorrow. The answer is in The Word of God!
