Mind, Day 4
Don't stop when you know the answer
Our minds play a huge role in our lives. How we relate to others, how we choose to spend our time and whether or not sin will control our lives. We are asked to be like minded with other believers and not to have divisions. In this day and age, there are so many religions it is hard to keep up. I have always separated religion from relationship. What this means to me is that our relationship with Jesus Christ is what makes us Christians and our belief in God unites us with so many other religions in this world. Are we to judge what is right and wrong amongst them, no, but we are to caution what is in their teachings. The Holy spirit will guard our hearts and minds. We can only live by the Spirit if we believe in Christ Jesus. So for me, I know that I must stay like minded with those who also live by the Spirit, because they too, will have the Spirit guarding their hearts and minds. So be cautious in this world, not to fall into the evil schemes of the devil. I know this sounds so religious to so many people, but we cannot live in peace without being guarded by the Spirit. Today, be open to being like minded with others that may not carry the same denomination as you. Seek those that are like minded and live at peace with them. Continue to pray for those that may be blinded. Just like the example of Hayley and the Quiz meet. Some may have part of the answer, but not the whole thing, they may have closed their minds to the Whole answer. I praise our God, Jesus Christ and the Spirit for this revelation.

Luke 10:27 He answered: "`love the Lord your God with all your hear and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind'; and, `Love your neighbor as yourself.' "
1 Corinthians 1:10 I appeal to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another so that there may be no divisions among you and that you may be perfectly united in mind and thought.
1 Peter 3:8 Finally, all of you, live in harmony with one another; be sympathetic, love as brothers, be compassionate and humble.
