Mind Wash: Let he who stands take heed lest he falls…
I have been weary of how things not going “my way” and gradually my heart hardened. I just noticed I read/studied my Bible less, prayed less and though I did not verbalise it much, I became critical of people and scoffed at their wins. My family started taking hits too…
Impatient with the children and easily irritated by my hubby. I was locked in my feelings and I began wondering why old traits I had stopped seeing in myself were cropping up.
Recently, I went back to reading the Bible again and noticed these old mindsets and traits were falling off the more I fed on the word. My feelings too were unseated from the VIP position and it became about God, not self.
It became clear to me that reading the Bible is not just routine but like having a bath, the Word cleanse the mind and thoughts. It replaces the odour of unwashed bodies with the fragrance of health and freshness.
