“Your mind is a powerful thing. When you fill it with positive thoughts, your life will start to change.” I’m not sure who said those words, but it’s true.
For 2021, AWOGI blog posts and sessions will encourage us to elevate our thought-life so that our minds transcend over and above the matters of our day-to-day experiences.
Think about it, before we can create vision board, we must have a vision—a specific direction and intent that’s not a mere wish aligned to a firm foundation that won’t crumble.
It all begins with how we think about things. Whether we see the glass as half full or half empty our thought process must be deliberate, determined, and definite.
Romans 12:2 reminds us of this,
“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”
This scripture reminds us that the world's mindset and actions are different from God's. Regardless of circumstances we can't control we must make the decision to align ourselves according to God's will.
Even when our reality is bleak, our mind is powerful—so powerful that it has the capability to carry us from bleakness to bountiful. We must continue to fill it with thoughts that bring life, light, and love—thoughts that are good, acceptable and perfect in the sight of God.
Focus and Conditioning
Again, this requires a deliberate, determined, and definite approach. What we see, hear, and focus on must be carefully evaluated and censored for content value. We must condition our minds to eliminate information with little to no value leaving that which adds substance and meaning.
The more we condition our minds to focus on the positive our actions will begin to follow suit….causing our life to change—or at the very lest changing the way we see things.
