Overview

You are embarking on a 40 day journey of discovering your inner world, beginning to change your mind about your thought life. It is time to think about what you think about. Matthew 5:8 in the Passion Translation "You're blessed when you get your inside world your mind and heart put right. Then you can see God in the outside world". One of the goals for this 40 days is to get your inside world put right. My journey of renewing my thought life began 30 years ago. It was a gift from the Holy Spirit as He began to teach me how to think about myself, my marriage, my parenting, my relationships, my work, etc. As my mind was being renewed (and it continues to be) my speech, actions and belief system changed. Set your heart to invest in the hard work of realigning your mind. This is a worthy endeavor. I use this quote from Bill Johnson (Bethel Church, Redding, CA) often, "I cannot afford to have a thought in my head about me that Jesus doesn't have in His head about me." This is the standard. What does Jesus think about you? Everything He thinks about you agrees with His nature. Our minds must be transformed from the earthly, practical, natural thinking to heavenly, belief, faith-filled thinking. Your challenge is to accept the eternal, infinite rule of God over your thought life! When you change your mind, you change your life.
