It amazes me how damaging lies are, and how many I have believed.<br /><br /> I have asked this question, as I have heard many others express the difficulty in experiencing the Abundant life. It is that we believe the lies the world tells us that we need to keep up with the jones'. <br /><br />From my own experience in seeking the abundant life, one of the things that has helped me most is practicing to have an "attitude of gratitude" In every circumstance it is possible to find something to be grateful for. It takes mental discipline and constantly "getting over myself" but it is possible and very rewarding. Of course I have to practice this daily, because we won't be perfected until we see His face!Nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05243122328541506587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6154101126139102508.post-33798676832348818402013-09-17T08:52:08.271-07:002013-09-17T08:52:08.271-07:00Abundant Life: I was struggling with fully unders...Abundant Life: I was struggling with fully understanding the definition of “Abundant Life”. <br />I was trying to wrap my brain around this why have I not have an abundant life with Jesus. Why am I so focus in the things I do not have. Why is my though not SOPHRON/Sound minded? It boiled down to selfishness and pride which lead me to stinking thinking I had to and continue to redirect my negative worldly perspective to what truly God wants for me. It is hard, but I am moving forward every moment, I am seeking HIM. <br />I understood on Saturday 9/7/13 Abundant Life in Christ is living a life under HIS covering even if I do not have my heart’s desire. In addition, I am to accept and live content w/ what the Lord has given me. I also realized I needed to be extremely careful in what I allow to bring in my home such as TV programs and music. As I am growing I am seeing God is unveiling the lies I held so dear to my heart which again, were lies.
