      20060430 Joy Of Jesus - Serenity In Your Contemplation - Thoughtfully - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

#MentalHealth is a big topic these days from the candidates for the #Presidency all the way down to the individuals struggling with #uncertainty, #division, and downright #panic.  We know that Satan is the author of chaos and discontent.  But, what does the Bible say is the solution to elevating our thoughts?  Without first yielding your life to Jesus, this list will only provide temporary relief.  For instance, the very first exhortation to focus on what is true, is very hard if not impossible to discern without knowing Christ.  The same goes for the rest of this list of thoughts about what is honest, just, pure, lovely, and of good report.  It takes effort to focus on these things because the world is busy shoving the opposite at us.

It seems there is a lot of #mental suffering in this world.  So many are experiencing #depression, #selfpity, and #selfishness.  And they all have something in common, an inward gaze.  How does Paul Thank God for his fellow Christians at Philippi?  Paul is writing this letter from prison and yet it is full of praise and prayer.  Wouldn’t you expect a prisoner to ask for relief or prayer for themselves?  What was one of Brother Tommy’s pet peeves?  Paul was thankful for their fellowship in the Gospel.   What does that tell us about what we are to be doing?  He also said he was expecting something from them.  What was it?  Does God start anything that He cannot finish?

What is the first remedy you reach for in the #medicine cabinet?  What should a Christian’s first reaction to pain or sickness be?  Notice the question said ‘first’ not ‘only.’  What are ten things Science has learned that prove what the Bible says about our thoughts?  How can these principles be used to promote healing?  Is Brother Tommy advocating this as a substitute for medicinal intervention?  What does blood flow have to do with health?  How can the flow be stimulated?  What does the Bible say about keeping our bodies strong?  What does it say about medicinal intervention?  And what can we glean from the examples of suffering saints?  How important is our health?  Is it supposed to be our ultimate pursuit?

Next week we will start looking at what the Bible says about ethics starting with the Old Testament.

What is mental or #EmotionalMaturity and how does this lesson from 37 years ago still apply today?  Is anyone 100% mentally healthy?  What are 5 keys to attaining emotional maturity?  Is there a way to measure emotional maturity?  As I listened to these 9 measures, my mind wandered to the current political discourse on social media and in the news and the phrase ’stunted growth’ seems to describe the current situation.  How can we best obtain the marks of maturity?

Next week we will start looking at what the Bible says about healing.
