Change The Channel
Change The Channel
ByWe are bombarded with many messages and images per day. Some are subliminal messages but a great deal of what goes into our mind, are things we can control.
Sometimes we don’t always make the best decisions when it comes to what we feed ourselves spiritually. Between television, music, and our peers, we’re influenced in many ways. But you do have control over what enters your mind.
Just like the television, when it comes to what goes in your heart, you have the choice to change the channel. It’s no surprised that one of the number one watched type shows on television are reality shows. And a great deal of these reality shows are feeding us the wrong image.
Next time, something comes on that’s damaging to your mind, make a decision to change the channel. When a friend starts talking negatively and feeding you the wrong message, politely disengage. When a song comes on the radio that’s negative and degrading, simply tune into a different frequency that’s uplifting and inspiring.
Proverbs 4:23 says to “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life.” When you constantly expose yourself to images and messages that are troubling, then it’s very much possible that you may find yourself making troubling decisions.
I always say when you put trash in, somehow, someway, trash is going to come out. Make conscious decisions to feed yourself things that are going to empower and inspire you to do greater things in life as you charge forth on your journey of life!
