MInd, Day 1

Mind, Day 1

Mind
The part of a person that thinks and reasons.

The part of humans that engages in conscious thinking, feeling, and decision making; in the Bible , mind is akin to the heart not the brain.

How interesting that this definition says that the word mind is not akin to the brain. I just use the two as one. Let's see what makes our minds so different from our brains. I am really looking forward to this one.

Please pray for Debi this week.

Please also pray for me. I have had many distractions and even now I am finding it hard to concentrate enough to write this devotional today. I guess that is where God likes me best and it is fitting considering our topic for the week. So, I will be learning right along with you. I chose this word because the definition sparked an interest to learn more. Isn't that what this is all about? Learning, growing, and discovering our awesome God together.

Dear Lord,
First of all I am thankful for the opportunity to be your servant. I thank you that you are using me, even in my state of mind. That you are willing to take me as I am and use whatever skills and talents that I do have to honor you and give you Glory. I am open this week as I have not studied, I have not basked in your word. So I ask forgiveness for the time I was not in your word. I thank you for the opportunities that I did have to hear your word this weekend, on the radio, my husbands message about courageously following Christ, through my sister's devotional on Love and through my daughters 80 question quiz meet on Saturday. I now know so much more about the book of Exodus. God, I just want to be in relationship with you this week. Keep my mind set on you and the things that are worth it. I praise you for every single person that reads this. I know that some of them are Freshman in High School this year and some are Seniors in life. May we fill the gap between our ages and see your living word in our lives. Amen.
