taming the mind

conditioning... taming the mind... bring it under control.. breaking it in... getting it ready... in shape...

to prepare the mind... but how??by instruction... coaching... tutoring... schooling... guiding... by being taught... accepting the wisdom of a teacher...

but to prepare the mind for what??

to capture every thought... every... e.v.e.r.y thought... i cant afford to give the devil a foothold !!! discipline... strength... endurance... knowledge...

yes...conditioning !!!

40 days of basic
water: 1 diet coke, 1 oj rest h20
brkfst: egg mc sand, hash bwn, decaf
lunch: cheese burg fry & the diet
dinner: chicken rice broc & water
snack: 1/2 bag popcorn
exercise: moving furniture (lame)
sleep: 12mon-7tue
scripture: job 7

"19 Will you never look away from me, or let me alone even for an instant?" Job 7:19

like any good parent, the father knows where his children are. like the drill sergeant, he uses every waking moment to train & impart his knowledge & discipline... knowledge & discipline that may save this life or anothers.

sometimes i would like to take a break from this training... but conditioning will pay off... when others fall away... those that find their strength in him will finish well... this is my hope ... this is my faith. SW

Amen. Strengthening the mind and most of all the spirit will give us the endurance we need to get to the other side. The road may be long and hard. The end result has to be worth more then the pain is to get there. Let's keep our eyes on the prize and we wil get there.
