Switch on your Brain – Mind Over Matter

2 Timothy 1:7 – God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of sound mind.   This islLinked to the concept that we are wired for love and natural optimism.

  • Our thought life actually changes our DNA. Thinking and feeling fear, anger, and frustration caused DNA to change shape.  Tightened up, became shorter, and switched off quality expression so individuals in turn felt shut down
  • We can control our reactions to anything
  • Stress level 1 is normal and brings focus. Level 2 and 3 become toxic
  • American Institute of Health Estimates that75-90% of visits to primary care are for stress related problems
  • We cannot control events or circumstances, but you can control your actions.
  • Good news is that this can be reversed by feelings of love, Joy appreciation and gratitude
    • HIV Positive patients that were positive had 300,000 time more resistance than negative patients

 When we operate in our normal love design in God’s image we are able to change the shape of our DNA forever.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower encouraged Allied soldiers taking part in the D-day invasion of June 6, 1944, reminding them, “The eyes of the world are upon you,” before they embarked on ” a great crusade.”

– it is so hard for us to remember how much has been sacrificed for us to be able to do this today. Think back to when you were 18 & idk what you were doing but I bet it wasn’t jumping out of a boat with bullets flying by your head and into your buddies.

– I think Eisenhower’s reminder of the eyes of the world are upon you still ring true for us today though. As Christian men – Men of Impact – the eyes of the world absolutely are on us and we are without a doubt on a crusade. Keep fighting the good fight and keep the faith. Like I said before you are better men than when you showed up this morning – and none of us would be here without the other.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

One of the things I love about F3 is that when we come out here we are not here to compete with one another. We are not here to prove ourselves but to encourage one another.

There is a book by Keller I have listed to a few times called the freedom of self forgetfulness based on the 1 Corinthians 3. “So let no boast in, for all things are yours”

Often I find myself comparing my performance in all areas of life. My ego wants me to be seen as something great

It is not about what others think and not even about what I think but what the lord thinks.

Re-live the gospel ever day.

Christ’s perfect performance on the cross is the one that matters.

He died on the cross so that we don’t have to meet some standard set by others or even ourselves.

I don’t care what you think,I don’t care what I think, only with the Lord thinks
