Of the Psyche: adventures in the mind…

The pursuit of peace

“Seek peace and pursue it…” 1 Peter 3:11 People seek peace and so often it eludes us. We search for peace of mind, heart and body but the necessities of life steal it away from us. We must work, look after our families and serve other people, and all our time and effort is poured…

Sorrow

When sorrow comes into our life it can cause us so much pain. The Lord is able to release us from it and to keep us safe and secure. We can feel the displeasure and rejection of other people acutely, but we remember the love of Jesus our Saviour and what He has done for…

A new mind

“Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.” Romans 12:2 We can know the will of God. It is written for us in the Holy Scripture. We can know God and know His…

Lording it over…

Why do we do it? The love we have of telling other people what to do becomes rampant and we seek to domineer each other, even in spiritual terms. We want to be seen to be in control of ourselves and others as it gives us clout and regard. The life of the humble is…

Mindless

The media will dull your mind and keep you in craven fear like nothing else. It is insidious. The constant drip of the negativity will undermine your psyche like nothing else. We should be more careful what we let into our minds and allow ourselves to be subject to. It is easy to become a…

Labyrinth

The mind is a huge labyrinth of neurons that link up in all sorts of incredible and unique ways. There are 80,000,000,000 eighty billion of them! Our thoughts, ideas, emotions, memories, etc, are bound up in them. We can extend our minds into many different worlds and places. We construct enormous fractils of reality based…

The wrecking of reality

If reality is real, there certainly is a God, one eternal God, maker and ruler of all. The undermining of reality is happening all around us. We are encouraged to believe in myths and fairy tales, and to choose for ourselves creatures that inhabit imagination. Unicorns, mermaids and all kinds of unreal creations, made from…

Soul state

Can we analyse ourself and ascertain the health of our soul? If so, how can we tell we are healthy and strong as soul-alive people? It is not about our feelings or what we think about what we are doing, but about the standards laid out for us in the word of God. It is…
