Listen to Today's Devotion

Overreactions are understandable. If I trigger your unseen emotional wound, you might react in a manner disproportionate to my action. Overreactions have their reasons. They also have their consequences. They can trap us in a stronghold.

Untruths lead to False narratives that prompt Overreactions. UFOs.

We need to follow Paul’s instructions: “Fight to capture every thought until it acknowledges the authority of Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:5 PHILLIPS). You confront worry at the door of your brain.  You grab worry by the nape and march him into the presence of the Prince of Peace. With the confidence of a burly barroom bouncer, toss anxiety out the door.

This is the version of you God wants to create. He will help you tame your thoughts.
