YOU have the innate ability to “think” yourself into happiness or despair WITHOUT the influence of the external world!
This is more recently discovered scientific fact from the field of neuroscience that studies the nervous system and its relationship to your behaviors, thoughts, emotions, and consciousness.
Don’t you realize beautiful being? Your intricate brain still has scientists trying to figure it out? What is fascinating is that this field continues to emerge outcomes that are already in the word of God!
The Bible emphasizes that your thoughts powerfully shape your life, urging you to focus on God’s truth, as seen in Proverbs 4:23 (“Guard your heart above all else, for everything you do flows from it”) and Philippians 4:8 (“Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure...think about such things”) to gain peace and direction, with 2 Corinthians 10:5 commanding to “take every thought captive to obey Christ”.
1. Quit giving power to something outside of you to have power over how you feel or what you believe. Change your belief that the world affects you; believe YOU affect your own reality!
2. Take inventory of your thoughts and how they make you feel. About what or about who are you ruminating? If it breaks your 💔 replace those thoughts with how much God LOVES you. Flood your thoughts with past evidence of the many times you have overcome heartbreak or loss or sadness because YOU are equipped internally by how God built you!
3. Go out and do something fun! My sister who is in hospice right now said to me, “Jessie, I want you to have more fun in life like I did.” She hit my heart with that one! Be playful and less hard on yourself! None of us walks around without messing up. Have grace for yourself. Forgive yourself. Extend grace to others.
Most of all Be Kind even when you think someone has hurt you. Release them with love not anger. Wish them well. Pray for them. It hurts now but God does marvelous things with what appears broken at the time.
