Time to change my thinking - yet again!

How easy is it to slip? You know, just slowly and subtly how we can slip back into negative thoughts. It doesn’t even have to be negative, just not remembering and claiming the promises God has already given us and get back into living an average life. God has not called us to be AVERAGE, but most of us live that way, when we don’t have to (including myself). I’m 31 weeks pregnant atm and I have actually been finding myself, even today, saying, “I’m so exhausted and tired. I can’t even do the dishes everyday let alone the housework; my legs, back and feet are killing me! I’m over this pregnancy! This is so much worse than the other two times I’ve been pregnant!” I’ve been saying it to my friends and thinking it to myself a lot lately. I know most people would say, “Well, you’ve got a great excuse! That’s what happens when you’re pregnant and you have another two kids under 5 to look after. You’re hormones are all over the place too,” so I was just driving home this afternoon and realised what I had been doing. I think it started a couple of weeks ago with just one or two thoughts and very subtly changed into thinking about it a lot and talking about it. Seriously, is anything too big for God? No way! We might live in this world, but we’re NOT meant to THINK like the world. I know it can be hard (I’ve definitely been there quite a few times, like today!), but our thoughts and MY THOUGHTS need to be from the heavens throne room, how God thinks. The kingdom of God, the spiritual / supernatural world needs to be more real to us than this earthly world, in our thoughts and mind, because that world, the spiritual world, God’s world, created this earthly world we live in. We’re meant to live in the kingdom of God, which means heaven on earth, what goes on in heaven is MEANT to happen on earth – like the Lord’s prayer (which we can so easily take for granted!), “Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven” (Matthew 6:9-10). I am really talking to myself here and know that I need to keep close to God to make that happen. My favorite scripture at the moment is Matthew 6:31-34 and the main part I go over and over in my mind is, “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” Even the start of this passage is so good, “Don’t worry!” God is always telling us not to worry, don’t be afraid, don’t fear! There is so much in this scripture that I could just keep going on and on, but I better leave it for now, save it for another post, I just can’t help myself sometimes!
