Monday Mind Seeks Refuge

2/22/10 Our inner refuge is where we go when the world gets to be too much. It’s the place we turn to when the hurts /concerns seem to drive us away. It’s a place without walls. It’s our mind. That’s where our reasoning power resides. It also houses our beliefs and opinions and lots of feelings. To me it can only hold so much---something that seems to lessen with age. Thus it needs to be filled with “worthy” thoughts. A Monday Mind. That’s what meditating Mondays are about---filling our minds with His word which is worthy. We create a refuge of thoughts. Then the right thoughts are there when we need them.

Today fill your mind to capacity with His truth.....

God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear,
though the earth give way
and the mountains fall
into the heart of the sea
though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake
with their surging.
(Psalm 46:1-3)
.....and your mind will find refuge.
