21 Day Fast From Wrong Thinking | 21 Day Fast From Wrong Thinking | ||
Every day, our minds are flooded with a constant stream of thoughts. Ranging from mundane daily tasks to deeper contemplations about life and the world around us. According to research, the average person has approximately 60,000 thoughts per day. | |||
But what is truly concerning is that 75% of these thoughts are negative - about 45,000 of them - and 95% are repetitive. Many of our negative thoughts are driven by the flight or fight part of our brain. This constant barrage of negative and repetitive thoughts can significantly impact our mental health, happiness, and overall quality of life. | |||
The impact of negative and repetitive thoughts can significantly impact our mental health and overall well-being. They can lead to increased stress and anxiety, decreased self-esteem, and a general sense of unhappiness and dissatisfaction with life. | |||
Moreover, repetitive thoughts can become deeply ingrained in our minds, making it difficult to change our thought patterns and break free from negative thinking. This negativity can result in a feeling of being stuck, unable to move forward, and lacking motivation to change our circumstances. | |||
Over the next few days, we will learn how to renew our minds in and through Jesus Christ by replacing those negative thoughts with positive and Godly ones. We will repent from those old mindsets and replace them with new positive, beautiful-promised thoughts. | |||
Just as God designs a butterfly to soar, so are you! However, the butterfly can only emerge in its beautiful colour and magnificent wings after it has been transformed within the warm cocoon of its Creator! This Fast from Wrong Thinking is your cocoon. As you wrap your mind in God’s thoughts over the next 21 days, you too will miraculously be transformed! | |||
Ready to fly? Let’s Go! | |||
