God wants our mind to be committed to Him. What we believe is important.
We are to grow intellectually in Christ. And to help us in that pursuit, we remember these words.
God said to Joshua: "You are to mediate day and night, so that you may be observed to do all that is written" (this was God's reminder that those who believe in God will pursue His word).
Then years later God told Jeremiah: "I will put my morals in their mind" (He has given us the insights to right and wrong, and desire to pursue our faith). The question then becomes - will we surrender our mind to Christ, to His Lordship?
We need to look at the world around us through the mind of Christ. We need to use the mind of Christ to look at the problems unfolding, as well as the political challenges tripping us up. And Billy wraps this up with , , , "Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus."
We thank Billy Graham for those words above (they are from his "Does God have you?" series).
And we thank you for considering this as the season of Lent leads us to Easter 2021.
