The mind set

The mind is what we see with
the mind is what we hear with
what we see and do is always influenced by the way we see the world
what we hear is filtered through the way think

Our mind set is one of our greatest friends
it is also one of our strongest foes
changing the way think sometimes can change the way our lives turn out

I think a person only grows old when they get a mind set, when they stop changing, stop growing

I love how a child is always learning, is so inquisitive, even sometimes so fearless

I think we should only grow...But not grow old. We are eternal beings after all, the casing on the outside will let us down. But the rest will live on

Our mind set will influence everything we do! But often I have found that I don't think about what I'm thinking...I just accept it, I know I have missed out on opportunities in God and in life because of that!


Jesus said this "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. (Mt 18:3)

One of your greatest gifts is the ability to change. The ability to grow

don't get stuck...As comfy as it may be!!!

Good Post Bro. Man...Faith, where the rubber meets the road. Yeah our experiences and perceptions can lock us up tighter than any physical prision. When we allow God to expand our minds to see ourselves how HE sees us, man, then we change. I maintain that little children and the elderly are the ones who move in faith the best. A little child just believes because it is not in his nature to disbelieve, the elderly believe because they have seen that God has been faithful their whole lives and they have overcome unbelief. It is the bunch of us in the middle who still are figuring it out... Blessings Ryno. Great Post -Moose
