If you are tired, try something different!

If your mental health remedies leave God out of the equation, try something different. God knows that mental stability foundationally supports a healthy life, so He speaks on it frequently in His love letter to us, the Bible. Of course, God has given us the technology to work with mental illness when the body malfunctions. But, for mental issues caused by anxiety, and greedy desires, we need to get a handle on our mind and emotions. If you want the same madness in your life, let the voices in our culture tell you (convince you) that God is dead. Alternatively, you can choose to embrace the peace and contentment God gives to those who have a relationship with Him through Jesus Christ.

Admitting brokenness and seeking God for help, however imperfect the journey, can lead to mental stability. The Lord makes this promise. His love letter says that He will keep in perfect peace all who trust in Him, all whose thoughts are fixed on Him. Step one, this week start to notice what you let into your mind. Who or what writes the rules for your life? Is it “The Real Housewives of whatever city,” your girlfriends, or a famous television show host? Try this simple step. God wants us to fill our minds with wonderful things. This week keep watch on what creeps into your precious heart.

Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life. Proverbs 4:23
