Mindful Queries

I have a field on my mind that needs plowing. (Anne Wilkes Tucker) 
Do you have weeds in you mind that need to be "pitched?" How does one plow under weeds of fear?
Lately my "mind field" feels more volatile than weeds---more of a "minefield." 
Unseen hazards but they are there. Explosive. Fearful dreadful thoughts waiting to erupt. An area planted with explosive mines, that need to be tempered by God's truth. Too often the war of fear wages on.
In yesterday's Jesus Calling, Sarah Young wrote that the mind is the last bastion of rebellion. Rebellion! I'm fighting with myself---I didn't see it as fighting against God. But God has a way of opening my eyes to my misunderstandings.
...but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace. (Romans 8:6b)
GOD's Word has the answer!
