Seven Steps To A Healthy Thought Life

If you ask most people how to become healthy, they’ll say something like: lose weight, add muscle, or become more active. While all of those things are important, when the Bible talks about being healthy, it doesn’t primarily refer to our BMI or cholesterol—it includes the health of our body, but also our mind and our soul. Last week, we talked about how our body is a temple of God, but today we’re going to focus on our mental health, because God also cares deeply about our minds. In Matthew 22:37, Jesus said the greatest command is to “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.” That tells me that your mind and your thoughts are important to God. So today, from Philippians 4, God’s Word is going to instruct us with seven steps to a healthy thought life.
