Overcoming negative thinking
Something that made me smile as I was reading for my quiet time today. Just like to share with u all the illustration and a short explanation of how we normally think and one particular useful way to OVERCOME our burdens. :)

Usually the pattern in our thinking is such: we acknowledge what God has said to be right and true then we throw in the crucial word 'BUT' and finally add on the negative situation/burdens/problems we have. When we do that we focus on the later part of the sentence, not what comes before it.
A simple diagram goes like this: GOD'S PROMISES BUT THE PROBLEM
OR we really think like this.

GOD BUT THE PROBLEM
When we desire to overcome, we need to discipline ourselves and taking the same pieces of information and think differently so that our new thinking look like this:

THE PROBLEM BUT GOD!

I really like this kind of simple illustration. :)
