Seed for Aug 17

As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.

Of course we know that the heart mentioned here is not the blood pumper in our chest, but our inner most thoughts of our minds. Another way to say it is, We are what we think about all the time. Thoughts are seeds for action. That is why we must take charge over our thoughts, as the Bible says, Bringing every thought into captivity to the Spirit. We have a fertile garden, our minds. We need to keep our garden free from evil and lustful thoughts. We do that by resisting the devil (our enemy) and trusting God to give us a clean mind. We need to meditate upon His Word, for this is the way in which God speaks to us. He will bring into remembrance the Word, and His Word will be there to speak to us and instruct us, and to guide us. We should repent of every thought that is contrary to the will and Word of God, and remind the Lord that we do not want to think that way! Trust our thoughts to come from Him as we praise, and talk to Him and meditate upon His Word. Lean not to your own understanding, but in ALL your ways, acknowledge the Lord and He will direct your steps. The steps of a good man or ordered by the Lord. Be blessed.
