The best way to change your life is to change your thinking. And the best way to change your thinking is to change your mental diet. Psalm 37:3 says, "Feed on His faithfulness." Jesus promised to lead us to find pasture (John 10:9). Jeremiah 15:16a says, "Your words were found, and I ate them, and Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart."

If a spiritual nutritional analyst conducted a study of what goes into your mind each day, what would be the report? What proportion of your mental food is Godly and scriptural?

While it's sometimes very hard to control our thoughts, it's not so hard to control what feeds our thought lives. Improving our mental diet enriches our thinking, elevates our attitudes, and renews our spirits. Cut out junk food and fill your mind with whatever is true, noble, just, pure, lovely, and good (Philippians 4:8).
