“Be cheerful with joyous celebration in every season of life. Let your joy overflow! And let gentleness be seen in every relationship, for our Lord is ever near. Don’t be pulled in different directions or worried about a thing. Be saturated in prayer throughout each day, offering your faith-filled requests before God with overflowing gratitude. Tell him every detail of your life, then God’s wonderful peace that transcends human understanding, will guard your heart and mind through Jesus Christ. Keep your thoughts continually fixed on all that is authentic and real, honorable and admirable, beautiful and respectful, pure and holy, merciful and kind. And fasten your thoughts on every glorious work of God, praising him always.”
A great encouragement and reminder that we get the answers we need when we are living in an attitude of purposeful joy and thanksgiving. When we keep our eyes and our heart fixed on Jesus and keep a constant conversation going with Him in prayer, He fills us with great peace. That’s a great way to kill negative self-talk. Don’t talk to yourself. Talk to Jesus.
