My Mind (Part-7) Maintaining A Positive Mindset

In this sermon we discuss the importance and benefits of having a positive mindset, being optimistic and hopeful in all situations. We learn six Biblical practices for developing and maintain a positive mindset: (a)Develop and maintain a Bible-based self-image (b) Practice renewed thinking - Think in terms of miracles (c) Picture, pray and proclaim the promises of God fulfilled (d) Be strong mentally – don’t quit (e) Keep hope alive at all times (f) Stay single-minded. Mental health has to do with how you are doing in your soul - your mind, will and emotions. It has to do with your emotional and psychological well-being. Having good mental health, being sound, well and whole in your soul is important because it affects how we feel, think, and behave. It affects how we go about life, how we relate to others, how we face challenges and handle difficult situations and how we do in things we are responsible for - education, work, etc. When we are doing well mentally, we can enjoy life, enjoy meaningful relationships, enjoy work, overcome life's challenges, be productive, keep growing towards our full potential and make meaningful contributions to those around us. The fact is that all of us face challenges at one point or another, with our mental health, our emotional and psychological well-being. There is nothing wrong in recognizing the difficulties you are facing, to get help, and address those mental health challenges in a positive way.
