“Think About Things Differently”

Daily writing prompt
If you had a freeway billboard, what would it say?

A fresh new way of thinking can work wonders in your life! Put your life and your thoughts in the hands of the Man who rose from the dead and is still alive and working in the world today! (That’d be Jesus.)

Prepare the way for Jesus to be the Lord within you. Christians are called to constantly fight the invisible fight of pulling down all of the corrupt desires, feelings, and habits that work to achieve and maintain a strong hold within them. Christ-followers are supposed to be continually casting down their own opinions and imaginings by compelling their every thought to always obey the risen Christ so that He can freely live and ever shine His light in them (unquenched, unobstructed, and uninterrupted). Then Jesus can fully and truly be the absolute Lord and Master of all that goes on within them. Never stop fighting the good fight of faith! (See 2 Corinthians 10:4.)

If you have yet to begin that fight (or have already surrendered to inner negativity), it’s not too late for you to start. Begin to focus your mind and heart on what is true, honest, just, pure, lovely, and of good report. (See Philippians 4:8.)

If you don’t like adulting
Begin daily consulting
The living Jesus
And let Him start sculpting
Your mind and heart
And catapulting
You into the joys
Of spiritual maturity.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
