YOUR WHOM YOU THINK



Tongue what a short organ in our body and even boneless.  A bit of biology  do you know that without tongue you cant talk??? Tongue helps us to chew food and to push at the  back of mouth for swallowing. So amazing I think so!


Tongue helps us to talk  you now know!!! But how do you use your tongue in terms of talking? So do we speak for the sake of speaking or after a conversation with a friend how does she /he feels immediately you stop speaking.


But how many of us have ever realized that those words we speaks sometimes so reckless as  jokes they may seem so little and even  meaningless but  how often do we know that those words we utter reckless as jokes they carry both life and death in it?


My friends  whatever word we utter with our mouth will determine how our lives will be . Until I read a verse in the bible Proverbs 18:21 (KJV) The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit.


For as the  Man thinketh  in his heart, so is he.” (Proverbs 23:7) What a short but very strong verse in the bible.




   Life isn’t fair right , that what most of us say but have ever thought for a moment why we have successful people and unsuccessful yet both were born with different  have potential?. The difference between these two types of people is in their thought life.A Story is told of a woman who choose to be positive with her life . The woman am talking about was just a house manager if you like a house help. This was hotelier by professional she had looked for job every where but she couldn’t  find a job  so she opted  to get a job as a house help.




  She didn’t give up life she was always positive despite many obstacles she faced as a house help , she knew that one day their will be a light at the end of the tunnel.


attended a one morning Sunday service, the pastor was praying for jobless .The pastor told the congregation that those who have applied for various jobs you have gone to different offices and  your told no jobs go back there Monday morning and tell the employer that you have come to work. (hehehehe this funny) 


 The pastor said choose a good place where you want to work This funny right?


The lady didn’t take this message lightly following morning the lady dressed to work in a place she has always been admiring since her childhood .The lady knew at her mind that she was go to work not for an interview.


  To cut long story short, the woman was an hotelier by profession just remember this, she went to one of the 5 star hotel with branches all over the world (what an aggressive woman, I like her guts ).


She went to the reception desk and told the receptionist that she was a new staff and she had come to work .The receptionist told the Human Resource Manager that they had a new staff  who had come to work remember the HRM doesn’t know anything about this.


 The Human resource Manager called the lady (maid) in her office and told her that they were not expecting  a new staff  maybe she is lost or something since there were no vacancy in that hotel.


The lady told HRM that I have come to work I know my position is there, the HRM thought may be the lady was crazy just to chase her out of his office she told the  lady to leave her certificate and contacts the hotel will call her in few days.


Few days passed and the lady couldn’t receive a call from the hotel so  she decided to go back  to the hotel. She told the  HRM that she waited for few days but she didn’t receive a call from the office so she had come back to start her new job (funny right? ) .


The HRM told the lady to go to the boardroom as they had to organize themselves to conduct an interview on her. Long story short, the lady was given a job the same very day she went home a happy woman (what a Positive Woman) .The lady spend most of her time flying all over the world ,reason she choose to remain positive in her life despite many obstacles in her life and many NO’S she was told in various offices earlier on.


The lady when she was jobless she took life positive and she spoke positive words over her life she knew  she was great and it was just a matter of time she will achieve her dream nevertheless.


Well, The positive People in life  have chosen to look on the brighter side of things, even in some of the worse case scenarios imaginable.


The negative type of people have chosen to think and dwell on all of the bad things that can happen or go wrong in this life. No matter what good may come their way, they will always think that something better could have come their way. As a result of all of this negative and morbid type of thinking in their thought process, nothing ever makes them happy or content because nothing is ever good enough for them.


As I said earlier those word we speak on our daily basis they are not air but they carry both life and death in them.

What this means is that we are directly responsible for choosing what we think about and dwell on – and then make sure that our thinking always lines up with the Word of God and how He wants us to think about things.


The power lies with us. We cannot blame anyone else, including God Himself, if we have chosen with our own free wills to constantly dwell on the negative and darker side of this life.

Bottom line – we all have to learn how to develop right thinking in our thought process. Our part is to do the best we can to try and think and dwell on the things that God wants us to be concentrating and focusing on. 


We do not have to become slaves to negative and pessimistic type thinking. In other words, we can choose to think about what we want to think about!
 

Our thinking and thought process does not control us – we control it! Negative type thinking can be broken. For many, it has become an actual mental stronghold because they have been mired down into this type of negative thinking for such a long period of time.


Some people are too judgmental and too critical of others. Maybe whatever word you speak leaves others with more sorrow and pain but remember to be either positive or negative is a matter of choice. In the first place you choose negativity over your life you can choose to be positive again.


 Your part will be to do the best you can to try and cast down these types of negative and destructive thoughts and replace them with more positive and godly types of thoughts.
