Are you one of those people who are good at fixing things?
Or maybe you are one of those people who just wish you had that gift? Don't worry, I'm not asking for you to raise you hand.
Part of our human nature is to normally try to fix things.
Whether it be broken hearts, busted dreams, or damaged relationships.
Either that or we try to fix them by doing the very opposite to avoid the mess...
Coldplay coined these words recently...
"Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you"
Can the words of a song really fix what might need fixing in your life right now? They maybe can help...but I am not convinced they will truly fix it.
I have some good news for you!
You don't have to rely on me or yourself to try and fix what is possibly wrong.
The fix you are maybe looking for starts I believe a little differently...
FIX your THOUGHTS
Our first choice, first action if you like, is to make some choices about what we think about the most.
Fixate on issue or focus on the fixer of our souls?
fix your thoughts on Jesus... Hebrews 3:1
There are many times something seemed impossible to fix, so I do what I can to focus on Christ, because I have no better place to turn.
And many times to help myself I remind myself or dive into His Word, to help guide my thoughts.
Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds
Deuteronomy 11:18
FIX your EYES
...run with perseverance...fixing our eyes on Jesus...
Hebrews 12:1-2
While you wait for the fix, you have to keep on moving.
And if you keep on moving towards Jesus, with that as your goal, your fix will come, I promise you!
Don't let yourself be distracted or put off. Run after Him.
Let your eyes look straight ahead; fix your gaze directly before you. Proverbs 4:25
Something to think about...
