Max Lucado Daily Devotional - You Can Tame Your Thoughts!

Listen to Today's Devotion

Thoughts have consequences, which prompts this question: Can we manage our lives by managing our thoughts?

Those who study the brain talk about neuroplasticity, the mutability of the brain. It is less like a chunk of concrete and more like a ball of putty. Adaptable. The brain is an editable manuscript. You can, quite literally, change your mind. Just as a sculptor shapes a ball of putty, it’s possible to sculpt your brain.

The apostle Paul said our attitudes and thoughts can be “constantly changing for the better” (Ephesians 4:23 TLB).

Victims of our inner voices? Not necessarily. Indeed, harnessed and helpful thoughts can change our lives. Perpetually anxious? Hounded by inner critics?  You can tame your thoughts!  A new “you” will appear as new thoughts begin to emerge.
