Day 7

Postby Debbie » Sun Jun 03, 2012 5:52 pm

Wow, this is an extremely important and challenging topic--pulling the weeds, dumping the trash. Not sure I know how to start, maybe I'm making it too complicated. I would appreciate any suggestions or simple ideas as to how to go about doing this. I'm definitely interested in making a habit of this; I know it will go a long way towards healing my heart and mind so that I can be of some good to God. Thanks and God Bless.

You already are of some good to God. :)

Weeds can be thoughts that are unhealthy or not truth.

Pull them by recognizing they are unhealthy and/or lies and replace them with what the bible says is the truth.

What are some thoughts you have that are harmful to you or others?

So... I was determined to find a way to document my weed pulling, at least for the recommended 30 days. So I asked God to help me, and we came up with a very nice spreadsheet (my answer to everything!). It lists the problem, the negative feelings/emotions, the lie and the TRUTH. So now my spreadsheet has two sheets--one to track my daily activities/goals, the other to identify and pull the weeds. Thank You Holy Spirit!
