#Mind-control

cc 5 Healthy Brain Tips

Proverbs 23: 7 AMP
“For as he thinks in his heart, so is he [in behaviour – one who manipulates]. He says to you, “Eat and Drink,” yet his heart is not with you [but it is begrudging the cost].”
I used to say to people “I am going to bake cakes” and guess what? I am baking cakes, the thing about this, I said it and started baking. I enjoy baking and started checking Google for ideas. The more I learned about baking cakes the more I wanted to bake. I see something and like it and try it for myself. It is amazing how we can become single-minded and focused on something we have a passion for.

So do you think it is #mind-control? In a way, I think it might be because we really focus on a specific thing. Can you imagine focusing on important things in your life? Do you know what the results will be?

I have been learning to focus my mind on more positive things in life. It’s very difficult because I am negatively inclined can you believe that? I would see the bad first and later the good.

With a lot of effort and practice, I have been focusing on good thoughts. What a beautiful day, thank You, for a packet of Simba Chippies. You know little things we take for granted. Not even say thank you.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, O LORD my God. Thank You, Lord, for today. Thank You, Lord, for my family, my job and my finances. Lord, I am so grateful for all the beautiful gifts I receive. Thank You, for my life, I can breathe and enjoy my life to the fullest. Lord, thank You, for helping me take control over my mind. Lord, that You have been teaching me to not accept every bad thought that pops into my mind each day. I put on the whole armour of God and I draw a hedge of Jesus Christs blood around my family and friends. In the Holy Name of Jesus Christ, Amen

#never #destroyed

https://goo.gl/xK6bTg 2 Corinthians 4: 8-9AMP “We are pressured in every way [hedged in], but not crushed; perplexed [unsure of finding a way out], but not driven to despair; hunted down and persecuted, but not deserted [to stand alone]; struck down, but never destroyed;” I realized that my emotions are something that can cause me to feel pressure and hedged in. My circumstances seem impossible and I feel that there is no way I am going to make it. Then it’s time to check what is going on in your personal life.  Are you getting enough sleep? Are you eating properly? Do you take a break from time to time? If I don’t get enough sleep it seems despair is knocking at my door, and I feel miserable. I just cannot move forward, I want to curl up and died. Just because I am tired and there seems to be no way out. Emotions have a way of controlling each one of us. I realized that I will never be destroyed because there is a way forward.  God gave me common sense an...

You are a Blessing to me!

Working in a multiracial office is always interesting, and my story today is one about sharing and looking out for each other.    Our cleaning lady doesn’t earn much and I doubt even if they are paying her ‘mini mum wages’.   Nevertheless the people in our office know this and worry about her.    One of the young ladies decided to give her a newspaper with all the latest add in it.   As she paged through the paper she sat next to her and asked her ‘what do you like’.    Looking at the stuff on the page she pick out a couple of things that seemed impossible to own and said to this young girl.   I like this and I would love to have one of these. Without her knowledge the Human Resource division made a collection and they then assigned the task to the young lady to buy the things Judy wanted. We gave her, her gifts today.   I was amazed at her gratefulness, tears of joy running down her face and all she could say was “T...

Help Me Stay True in Giving God His Tithe

Can I be real with you for a minute? Tithing is something I wrestle with. I try my best to be faithful, giving to the best of my ability. But let's be honest, sometimes I look around and see others who seem to be blessed in ways I'm not. They have this financial ease, this "caliber" of blessing, that can feel a world away from my own reality. And in those moments of doubt, a quiet, gentle voice reminds me: I am blessed. God does provide. He has come through for me more times than I can count, often in ways I didn't even see until later. He's always there, picking me up when I've lost it and guiding me when I'm blind to the path. My heart is so grateful for that. But my thinking still needs work. My human nature kicks in and whispers, "I earned this. I worked for this salary." It’s a constant battle to get my heart aligned with the truth. And the truth is found in verses like this: “A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the ...
