Two types of voices command your attention today. Negative ones fill your mind with doubt, bitterness, and fear. Positive ones purvey hope & strength. Which ones will you choose to heed? You have a choice, you know.

"...bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ" (2 Cor 10:5b)

Do you let anyone who knocks on your door enter your house? Don't let every thought taht surfaces dwell in your mind. Take it captive...make it obey Jesus. If it refuses, don't think on it.

Negative thoughts never strengthen you. How many times have you cleared a traffic jam with your grumbles? Does groaning about bills make them disappear? Why moan about your aches and pains, problems and tasks?

"Keep your heart with all dilegence; for out of it are the issues of life" (Proverbs 4:23)
