![]() He has put a new song in my mouth – Praise to our God Many will see it and fear, and will trust in the Lord." Psalm 40:2-3. I can say, as the psalmist, "He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, Out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my steps. Since then, I have no longer been overwhelmed or helpless. God gives me the strength to do this, because he gives power to the weak. I need to be awake so that I stay the "boss" in my head. Each thought that does not lead to hope, I throw out. "All thoughts that don’t lead to hope or faith are not of God." I heard that at a meeting. If we accept this and learn not to judge, and to give more space to ourselves, people and events, we can make progress towards reaching peace of mind. God’s thoughts for me are full of hope and a future. The choice is mine! That gave me authority. ![]() I can choose whether or not I allow a thought to stay in my head.

This new way of thinking was a revelation from God. This gave the Scripture verse a whole new meaning for me, "For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ." 2 Corinthians 10:4-5. (This may also include visiting prostitutes in more extreme cases). " You need to take your thoughts captive before they take you captive!" Masturbating or having sex repeatedly just for the purpose of checking their own reaction to it. My personal experience was that my thoughts used to feel more like uninvited guests with impossible behavior and who tried to destroy the whole "party." I wanted to throw them out, but I could not do it alone. Thoughts are also free in the sense that no one except you knows what you are thinking, and no one except yourself can change your thoughts-in any case, no one can trap them. It is true when they say, "No scholar can map them, No hunter can trap them." ![]() "Your thoughts are free." Those are the words of a well-known song.
