As a man thinks in his heart, so is he. He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, And he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city. Wisdom rests silently in the mind and heart of him who has understanding, but that which is in the inward part of self-confident fools is made known. He who has no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down and without walls. (Proverbs 23:7 Proverbs 16:32 Proverbs 14:33 Proverbs 25:28)
The direction of our lives can be determined depending on our thoughts. If you are in turmoil, and your mind is agitated, confused or distracted, you cannot control your circumstances. You cannot do it if you don’t control your heart and mind. Whatever you think in your mind, it will happen in heaven, so it could well be a matter of life or death for us to control our mind, taking every thought captive. The power of life and death are in the tongue (Proverbs 18:21) and what we focus on and spend time dwelling on in our thoughts will eventually manifest in our words and and in the circumstances of our lives.. If we create a positive atmosphere around us, with positive thoughts, mind and heart, we will attract beauty into our lives, and good and beautiful things will start to happen.
