Prepare your mind...

Today in "Experiencing God Day-by-Day Devotional" by Henry Blackaby, the following JUMPED off the page, starting in paragraph three:

"Sadly, many Christians today do not excercise their minds to be of service to God. They allow others to do their spiritual thinking for them. If they can find their theology from a book, they will not bother to study God's Word themselves. If a speaker makes an authoritative statement, they readily accept it without verifying whether it is biblical."

I'm convicted! In II Timothy 2:15 it states: "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who CORRECTLY HANDLES the word of truth."

In Ephesians, it calls us to " take every thought CAPTIVE to the obediance of Christ."

Well, 'nough said. Get back on the path if you've found yourself in the weeds and keep your eyes on the Son. Peace Out!
