Peaceful mind
“For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace;” Romans 8:6 Our puny humans minds are unsettled very easily. We become conflicted and psychosis can overtake us at points of severe distress and emotional conflict. How we act and react in these times of conflict is…

A debased mind
“… And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting;” Romans 1:28 It is possible to be given over to evil in our thoughts, emotions and behaviour as we have chosen to practice them. If…

The mind of the Lord
“For “who has known the mind of the LORD that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.” 1 Corinthians 2:16 It is possible for fallen humans beings to know the mind of God and to know Him so well that they always perceive what He wants for us. The mind of…

A mourning mind
I am often cast down by the state of my family. They are far away from God and my husband is far away from me. I will soon be a divorced person, which is not something I ever considered or want. I do not understand God’s ways but I do trust Him to work all…

Thinking
We are told not to examine to deeply, over-think or over-analyse ourselves. The bible says the opposite… “…Let a man examine himself…” 1 Corinthians 11:28 We are to examine ourselves and see if we belong to the household of faith, or whether we are fit to attend the Lord’s table of remembrance, or whether our…

Don’t believe everything you hear…
“Beloved, don’t believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit who confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit who doesn’t confess that Jesus…

Anxiety
“Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” 1 Peter 5:7 Everything has the possibility of making us anxious. It is not necessarily the things that troubles us, but the state of mind we are in. We can live our lives in a state of perpetual anxiety about any number of things.…

The BiPolar mind
The BiPolar mind is a beautiful fractal. It is so sensitive and analytical towards its own thoughts and the thoughts and behaviour of others. It is capable of such empathy and finds it easy to identify with sufferers and people with deep difficulties. People who suffer in this way are good friends and confidantes and…
