Thoughts translated into action, how Caring for the Mind?

Ps. Alexis Fernando Jimenez became recurring images. Emerged with the rapidity of a flash of light on a dark night. Sequences were mixed, as in a movie without form, those who travel from past to future and future to the present, no time to process the scene. In all thoughts abounded inclinations to perversion. Joaquin was desperate. Conceived not as a Christian was facing such a situation. In his mind fought a tremendous battle. On one side was his conviction as a believer, committed to taking fidelity to Christ, but on the other hand, emerged the carnal nature, inclined to all prohibited. - God, help me please ...-- repeated with anguish in the midst of despair that he woke up feeling trapped in a network that could not escape. And although his call to the Lord in search of strength, was born in the depths of his heart, he felt the frustration of seeing again his thoughts were dominated by lust, and desire, at times uncontrollable, to put into practice everything that conceived. And there it was after ten o'clock at night. He had just arrived from a cult that seemed wonderful, in which the Spirit of God had moved mightily, and he, connecting to a pornography site, taking advantage of their parents had gone to bed.

Although I knew to look for those pictures were full of evil that kept him tied up, he felt that it was very difficult to give up such practices. His mind was ruled by images of perversion ... What we think, do ... Until we accept the fact that what we think is intimately linked to our behavior, we are tied to evil. If we allow our eyes to see all the evil that sells Internet Websites, magazines, movies or stories, we will be running around like a vicious cycle, rising and falling. There is a dynamic principle in the Bible that we burn in the depths of our being and bring it up every time we perceive, directly or indirectly, any information: "For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he ..."( Proverbs 23:7) The Lord Jesus warned about the need to take care of our heart, which in practical terms is that part where we process and store any information that later we emerged with words and actions: He said that "... the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies. These are the things which defile a man "(Matthew 15:19-20)

The evangelist Mark describes the beloved Master warning as follows: "For from within, the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit , lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness. All these evils come from within and defile a man. " (Mark 7:21-23) It is very valuable for our lives. From Scripture we learn that no one but us can determine what information is filtered to accept our mind. And also, we and anyone else who we react to these stimuli. Like it or not, act largely driven by what we think, and Jesus knows what our hearts nests -. (Luke 5:22) What thoughts nested? Fall into sin, petting product of evil thoughts, it is tragic. It is a story whose end we can easily foresee, as the Bible teaches us: "And a sword will pierce your soul from yourself, to be expressed the thoughts of many hearts." (Luke 2:35) So as we evaluate our actions, at least the most basic is the behavior of those who want to improve and grow each day in personal and spiritual dimensions, is essential to examine what are the thoughts they nest.

We work in proportion to what we think, hence the reason King David about the need to put a stop to all that he kept in his mind, information that is reflected in what she did and said. He wrote: "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart before thee, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer" (Psalm 19:14). Move imaginary home. Does the city, right? Now, who enter your home? Does trigger thieves or those who seek evil to its existence or perhaps your family? Not at all. I am convinced that you are caring for those crossing the door of his residence. Therefore, so must be all that our brain processes. To allow entry only to actions reflecting healthy. Pornography pollutes and, therefore, unleashed evil. Same with vulgar words or acts of violence may be settled in our hearts and intimately can lead to naturally conceived as a kind of aggressive reaction. If we are the birthplace of the sensual stimuli, degrading and worldly, we can expect new levels our spirituality and to grow as God expects of us. Always remember that "The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of the wicked are deceit." (Proverbs 12:5) and also that "thoughts are disappointed there is no counsel, but in the multitude of counselors they are established. " (Proverbs 15:22) I recently read an author who was an affirmation that I share with you because it contains a valuable message: "Our life will be transformed to the extent that we look good, and to meditate on the perfection of God who is our model: The Lord Jesus Christ. "

Reprogram your mind No, I'm not talking about New Age or humanistic philosophies. I am sharing a principle proven by modern psychology, which does not conflict at all with biblical principles: it is possible to reprogram our minds. To the extent we process new patterns of thoughts, there is a significant transformation in how we act. In the opinion of neurologists, are plotted new "neuronal highways." Centuries ago, the apostle Paul made it feel this truth now science confirms it. He recommended that first-century Christians and to us today: "All that is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any virtue and if anything praise, think on these things "(Philippians 4:8). Who helps us in this process? God. He strengthens us and helps feed our mind with healthy thoughts (see Psalm 10:4, 94:11, 139:23, Proverbs 16.3; 19:21). Never forget that a committed Christian, carefully measure what you think. It is a principle of life. The essential step in their personal and spiritual growth. And you, what is he thinking? Ps.
