Today is Thursday, August 27th, 2015; Karen's Korner #3134

I just finished reading a book by Joyce Meyer titled "POWER THOUGHTS", 12 Strategies to WIN the Battle of the Mind.

According to Meyer, too many of us allow the thoughts that rattle through our mind 'lead us to chart the course for our lives and pointing us in certain directions that ultimately determine our destinations in life.......We absolutely must understand the power of thoughts!"

Some of our thoughts are good and God-honoring. But too many times, they are controlled by our environment or our past (i.e. 'Why can't you ever do anything right?'; 'You are too old/too young/not talented enough........to do that!"). Or what thoughts go through our minds, planted there by Satan or something evil or negative (i.e. our fears/anxiety...  for the future, our family members, our community). Those thoughts may or may not be our own, but planted there by some outside source.

Meyer gives readers a 'thought' to think, over and over for a week.....one at a time; to start the process of disciplining our mind as God's children, reminding ourselves our 'possessions' as part of His Family

SO THIS WILL BE #1 of 12 'Thoughts on Thursdays'

to think for one week, as we begin together to retrain our minds:

"I Can Do Whatever I Need To Do In Life Through Christ"

*

Bible verses to back up Meyer's words:

"For I can do everything God asks me to with the help of Christ who gives me the strength and power."

~ Philippians 4:13

*

"But despite all of those, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ who loved us enough to die for us."

~ Romans 8:37

*

"Keep your eyes on Jesus, our leader and instructor."

~ Romans 12:2A

*

Start the thought pattern: "I Can Do Whatever I Need To Do in Life Through Christ!"
