Our minds are a battleground. Which way do we turn – sin or safety? Attack or retreat. We need to be like the Marines where the word retreat doesn’t exist. They just advance in another direction. The mind can also become a source of peace. God gave us the ability to reason. Emotions can cloud our vision and our thinking. Emotions do serve a purpose – that’s why God gave them to us. Emotions get our attention. The key is not to allow a particular emotion, such as anger or guilt, paralyze us. There must be an end in sight – and that is the peace that comes from God’s Word where there are over 7000 promises!
