Thoughts: Mine, Others, Whose?!

I don’t wanna ever embrace again some people’s Thoughts of me,

those thoughts have hurt and made me temporarily delusional.

Yet I would like to embrace some people’s Thoughts of me,

For those have motivated me to believe higher for myself.

I don’t even wanna embrace some Thoughts of myself sometimes;

for who knows where those thoughts came from

As I am aware that there’s a wrestling match going on between my mind and members

that sometimes the good that I intend to do I do not; and the evil that I don’t intend to do I find myself doing. (Romans 7:8-24)

Yet the Thoughts that I think of myself matter more.

I better think thoughts that are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, and of good report or rapport. (Philippians 4:8)

And thoughts of peace, and not of evil, so I can attain His expected end for me. (Jeremiah‬ ‭29:11‬)

For these are the Thoughts of my Creator which matters most than any thought I or anyone may have of me.

So, align myself I must with His thoughts of me.

No matter what anyone thinks of me,

I have to agree with their verbalized thoughts and visualize myself being so for it to materialize!

I don’t ever want to think too highly of myself again

Nor embrace the lowly thoughts of others.

Father, I pray Thee help me and us all to have Your balance in our Thoughts.

    You’re darn right! We need balance (sounds like a good post for another day) not only in our thoughts, but in every spheres of our lives!! Thanks

    Balance in our thoughts can never be overemphasized. Nice one TT. Secondly, it is healthy to find a balance between what we think of ourselves and what others do.
