Day Six // February 23 // Whatever is True “If you tell the truth, you don’t have to remember anything.” – Mark Twain –
Our thoughts have a dramatic impact on our lives. In fact, Proverbs 23:7 captures this truth: “For as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.” Billy Graham wrote, “In the course of a day, all sorts of thoughts lodge themselves in our minds – some good, some not so good. Those thoughts can, in turn, give birth to all sorts of worries and anxieties; they may even lead us to do things that are wrong or destructive.” To take charge of our thoughts and allow the mind of Christ be in us, we must begin by marinating in the truth. John 14:6-7 shows us where truth resides: “Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you know me, you will know my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.’”
