Proverbs 23:7 NKJ ~ So as he thinks in his heart, so is he.
The power of thoughts are documented to be very powerful, both in scripture and in modern research , now bring that up a notch and consider the power of words spoken out, whether to someone else or to yourself. What do these words create? What kind of emotion do these words generate in your soul, in your heart? Design your future to become who God intended you to be!

Life or Death (or how about dying daily)
Of all the people you and I know including ourselves and on every occasion in our life we all have a choice to demonstrate either Inclination. What we choose determines everything that follows that choice; very much like a domino effect. No matter where our life's journey is taking you, you can make daily choices to fuel your life with the right kind of thoughts and words! Make a difference in the rest of your life; make a difference in your today, make a difference in others around you. Put the high octane fuel in your mind and see how your "engine" runs for you, then get up and do it again tomorrow, and the next day, and the next…. Pretty soon you will find that your entire life is headed on a different course.
Philippians 4:8 ~ Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable-if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-think about such things. NIV
Have the BEST Day EVER!
