Our Mind Is A Battleground

Our Mind Is A Battleground

  I had a realization a few years ago. My mind is a battleground. Yours is too. There is a war for our thoughts, and it rages every day.

“You do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.” Matthew 16:23

I’m challenged every time I read that verse.  Jesus said that to Peter, one of his 12 closest friends and followers. The reminder is good for us today. Even as Christ followers, the battle for our thoughts continues. It is easy to latch on to things that are not God’s best… for our lives or our minds.  I pray that God would lovingly call us out as well.  So our minds and hearts can be full of God intended thoughts. -Sandi
