writing between the lines of the message outline

They were not the blanks to be filled in on the message outline but instead they were the words written on the pages of my journal. They were the words my pastor used last Sunday that I have read over and over again. I’ve read them because they have touched me deeply during a time when I find I am captive by my thoughts rather than taking my thoughts captive to the mind of Christ. How do I take every thought captive to the mind of Christ. I do this by re-reading my journal pages from Sunday’s sermon as we looked into and learned for Genesis:

“May the word of God shape your view of circumstances.”

They were not the blanks to be filled in on the message outline. They were the words written on my heart and on my journal pages to be read, recalled and lived out … not only on Monday but throughout the entire week. A reminder that indeed He is in the midst of my circumstances and it is to His word that I run to for comfort, peace and hope! Praying now that the word of God will shape my view of my current circumstances. I am reminded today my circumstances are for His good and for His glory!
