Episode 271 // Getting stuck in a pattern of negative thinking is never helpful. It doesn’t feel good, and it doesn’t help us love our husbands and kids well. But, it’s a really common struggle!

 

Thankfully, like most areas of life, God has hope for us. There are practical action steps that can help us break this cycle of negative thinking and start fixing our minds and hearts on the things above, where Christ is (Colossians 3). As the Lord works in us, He purifies us. Helps us. Changes us.

 

Today, I want to share 8 real-life tips that I’ve found so helpful with folks in the counseling room. There’s no magic wand here, but there is the grace and power of God to change your life. And for many of us, that starts inside our own thought life.

 

Dive in with me, friend.

 

hugs & blessings,

Jess
