Today's Scripture
Ephesians 4:23–24, NIV
...to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
Today's Word
Your life follows your thoughts. If your thoughts have been running in a negative pattern for year after year, it's as though they've dug a deep riverbed that flows in only one direction. With every pessimistic thought, the riverbed is a bit deeper and the current stronger. Fortunately, we can dig a new river, one going in a positive direction. When you start to dwell on God's Word and see the best in situations, you are redirecting the flow of that river one thought at a time. As you reject negative thoughts and redirect the flow, as you choose faith instead of fear, expecting good things, that negative stream will dwindle and the positive river will flow with faith-filled thoughts of victory.
Keep in mind that the river of negativity wasn't formed overnight, nor will it be redirected without some conscious, strenuous effort on your part. God will help you. Start expecting good things. Stay full of faith, full of joy, full of hope. If you transform your thinking, God will transform your life.
