"Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is- His good, pleasing, and perfect will." -Romans 12:2
I have let negative thoughts control my mind since I was a little girl. Doubts, insecurities, worries.. all of these consumed my mind making my an insecure person. Those thoughts affected my relationships and how I saw myself. Letting my mind run free makes me over analyze things that I probably don't have to worry about. Now I realize that those thoughts are not of the Lord. I dont want to be scared all the time. I want to be fearless. And through God, I know I can be. God is in control and I trust that everything that happens is in His will.
I love reading this because it is so true! As we grow older we tend to over analyze EVERYTHING and it seems to get the best of us. I just had a conversation with Mason about how awesome it is when you see a child blindly believe in Jesus and that He loves them. It is as simple as that. No over-thinking, no analyzing... just believing. I try to remind myself to think like a child would and it helps keep things in perspective :) Love you girl!
