Your life is shaped by your thoughts.
—Proverbs 4:23 TEV
During your last physical, the doctor probably asked about your eating habits because your physical health is related to what you eat. Some dietary changes may be called for.
Likewise, your spiritual health is related to your mental diet. What you feed your mind purifies or poisons. Are some changes needed?
If you want to be physically healthy, you must control what you eat.
If you want to be spiritually healthy, you must control what you think. “Be careful how you think; your life is shaped by your thoughts” (Prv 4:23 TEV).
“If you value the approval of God, fix your minds on whatever is true and honorable and just and pure and lovely and praiseworthy” (Phil 4:8 JBP).
Control your thoughts
because your thoughts control your life.
