VAIN IMAGINATIONS

Anybody else? Or just me. I tell you my mind can go sometimes. My "friend" who went to the OB/GYN had her set of imaginations today. Doctor called and asked her to call him back. She immediately went to something is seriously wrong. All manner of diseases. Totally freaked. I mean TOTALLY. She had not even called him back and she went all over the place. Needless to say it was still run of the mill girly stuff. But how distracted was she for a while. When I was diagnosed with high blood pressure, I went to heart transplant in a hurry and then when they mentioned something about how my meds work on my kidneys- girls I had myself on dialysis before I even got out of the doctor's office.

Beth Moore talked about a "spewing mind" being a sign of distrust. OUCH- that hurts. The thought that I would distrust Jesus scares me. It saddens me. Breaks my heart. Yet if I am honest with myself, that is exactly what it is. This is why the word of God is so IMPORTANT. To be honest, at times, it is hard work for me to believe God. My flesh screams out all sorts of insecurities & mess ups. To believe that He loves me unconditionally does not go with my natural man. Praise God for my spirit man. Because when I get in the Word, my spirit man gets a little bolder. Sometimes even a lot bolder. It looks through the pages at David, Rahab, Esther, Paul & Peter. My inner princess warrior gets armored up and ready to fight another day- knowing the host of heaven is ready to go at her Father's orders. Be encouraged today in the Word of God. Encourage yourself in the Word, don't wait on someone else to do it. You dig deep into text and plant yourself firmly on what He has done, is doing & will continue to do.

Isaiah 26:3
" You will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You."

Our choice.
