Your life is ruled by that which occupies your mind. – Jocelyn Soriano
Be very careful what you allow to occupy your mind. What fills your thoughts often manifests in your life. For if your thoughts are filled with things dark and twisted, your life will be troubled as well. But if your thoughts are filled with thoughts of peace, you will also live in serenity and calm.
You choose what things you think about most. Will you think only of material riches that fade away and are easily stolen away from you? Or will you fill your mind with things of eternal value and lasting joy?
At the end of our days, we will realize how well we spent each moment we had. And the time given us begins with the time we use to think about that which matters most in our lives.
What was sown amongst the thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of this age and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. – Matthew 13:22, WEBBE
