Friday Five - Thoughts, Thinks, Imaginings Wide Open Conversations

    • Self-Improvement

Sometimes we need to reign in our thoughts, and set the mind on higher things.

A friend who has overcome severe addiction told me that it took him a while to ready his mind for what it would take, and that's a great point!

It's not easy, but is much needed.

Sometimes we can help reset our calm with simple things like making the bed, cleaning out clutter — even one drawer, making the right kinds of foods, calling a friend, or taking a bath. 

In this episode, I share a short clip from a song that I wrote on a kids' worship project. The song is based on Proverbs 3:5-6. In the bridge, I wanted to use my four-year-old prayer "Bless my thoughts, my thinks, and my imaginings..." so I adapted those words to ones that we can all relate to — young and old alike:

Bless my thoughts, my dreams, my imagination.

Step by step, Your delight, Your Creation.

And yes, renewing the mind is something that we will always seek and practice.

It is vital, for what we think, we become.

So set your mind on higher things this weekend.

Join me Tuesday for the next Wide Open Conversation!
