2 Corinthians 4:16-1
When it comes to challenges and struggles in our lives, people often say its “mind over matter”. But what does that really mean? According to idioms.thefreedictionary.com, it means “the power of the mind to control and influence the body and the physical world generally.” How many of us focus on the wrongs or the problems in our lives more than we focus on the joys the Lord has blessed us with? If we focus on the negative, then we will tend to have a negative outlook on our lives. As children in Christ, we need to change the way we think and realize that even if we are struggling now, our eternal reward awaits us at the finish line; “For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all” (v.17). Make the choice to think positively today, for “inwardly we are being renewed day by day” (v.16). by Ashley Plaugher
