brace your mind

 

Brace Your Mind

 

John 5:30

One of the reasons people don’t get things done is that they mentally see their unfinished assignments as monstrous undertakings. If they would just take care of those projects, they would find they aren’t that big of a deal.

 

First Peter 1:13 says, “Brace up your minds; be sober (circumspect, morally alert); set your hope wholly and unchangeably on the grace (divine favor) that is coming to you when Jesus Christ (the Messiah) is revealed.” Don’t let your mind rule you. When thoughts of inadequacy fill your head, stop and remember that God’s grace is sufficient to meet all your needs. Just do things one at a time, and keep your mind on God’s ability, not your own.
