Living the Word through Mental Challenges: Minding the Mental in Grief Living the Word Beyond Sunday Morning the Podcast

    • Christianity

Matthew 22:37 requires us to love the Lord with all our heart, soul and mind. But everything starts with the mind. It is the mind that tells the rest of the body how to function and if we are to truly love the Lord with all of our heart and soul, it must start with the mind. That means we must intentionally feed our minds with those things that will cause us to behave in ways that are pleasing to the Lord so that our love of the Lord will be evident. In Philippians 4:8. Paul admonishes us to think on whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy. To think is a verb; it is an intentional action. When we intentionally think on positive things, our heart, soul and action will follow suit.

It is important that we in the Christian community take the steps necessary to de-stigmatize mental health needs. God was gracious enough to supply us with people who are trained in assisting individuals who need help with developing strategies to heal from traumas in their lives. This in no way undermines the need to pray but we can also pray for the Lord to lead us to the right therapist for us.
