Leave the old pursue the new

 1 Timothy 4:8 “For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.”….6:11”But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness.”   When we want to start fresh we have to concentrate on what we want to do now, not on what we want to stop doing.    What we think about grows.  If this New Year you want to eat less processed foods concentrate on eating high quality natural foods.   

If you want to leave old thought patterns that are keeping you stuck intentionally chose new thoughts.  If we think, “ today what ever I do, Im not going to….. then we will be thinking of what we don’t want to do all day and eventually give in.  If we pursue, being filled with the Holy Spirit, trusting Jesus in all things  and godliness with our whole hearts the draw of we want will grow and what we don’t  want will fade away.     James 4:7& 8 “ Resist  the devil and he will flee from you, draw near to God and God will draw near to you. “.  Happy New Year!
