Our minds were not built to consume all the ugly that the world has to offer. If we are doomscrolling… If we're consuming mass junk from Reality-TV, bad stuff on the internet, all of the stuff is having an impact. Our minds cannot swim in a sea of poison, with no consequences to the thoughts and ultimately to our actions.
The average TV show or media feed is NOT BUILT to fuel our spirit of gratitude and thankfulness.
God did give us something very special, though. He gave us a heart for beauty, a mind that can potentially understand what is truly inspiring, a spirit that can detect His hands all around us.
IF… if… and that's a big IF, if our minds and hearts are open to these things.
If we want to begin to fix… REALLY fix our attitudes, heal our minds, and live in appreciation of God's creation, we need to consume good spiritual food.
We need to take a minute, and reorient refocus on the beauty all around us. Read THE TRUTH OF HIS WORD. Listen to music that praises Him, and think about the things that are pure, lovely, admirable, excellent and praiseworthy.
This will reorient our minds. We will reorient our attitude. We will reignite our gratefulness, and we will praise God, our King and our Savior, Jesus, like He deserves.
