What do your thoughts focus on?

"Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect." Romans 12:2 .... How often do we find ourselves beat up, depressed or even angry about things that find their way into our hearts and minds? The enemy knows how to take our attention away from God and if we aren't careful we can find ourselves trapped in that mind set. Remembering to keep our thoughts and hearts focused on what is of God will keep us in perfect harmony and allow us to live a life free of bondage. We obviously can't stop thoughts from coming, but we can certainly control what we engage in. The lifespan of a thought is determined by how much attention it receives and if a thought is never put into word or action then it will die unborn .... Proverbs 4:23 tells us to Guard our hearts above all else, for it determines the course of our life. Just sharing some "thoughts" with you guys tonight.
