| How we think determines who we are

I think a lot. I think too much about some things- such as about what people think of me, and too little about what is really important.
I just finally did yesterday's bible study (I have been struggling to engage with God for about a week now) and the passage studied was Colossians 1 21-23. God really loves humans right! He knows that I just needed some encouragement to keen on going in my faith! In this letter, written years and years ago- Paul exorts the colossians to hold onto the hope of the Gospel. And He just did the same for me on this Saturday.
If I spent more time thinking about the hope of the Gospel- for myself and for everyone I know I would be a very different person from the one I am; judgemental and rigid. For instance, would I have hated my body for the painful shin splints that I have got? well; I do just now- I am really annoyed- today I only managed about 5 minutes on the treadmill- had to spend a whole 45 on the silly boring cross trainer- but I felt that I had to- as I ate too much yesterday and didnt trust myself to restrict enough today. I just know that this isn't a healthy pattern to be in. But how else should I live? I am really hoping to find some answers in the next few months with the psych.
Mike is coming back from Keele in about an hour- I have really really missed him this last 24 hours. I don't like that he has been having such a good time without me. I know that it will be the other way around next week but I am almost nervous to see him!
I spent some time packing for Majorca today, I am so excited!! I really hope that it is quite warm- and that we get a chance to get some good relaxation and reflection. |
