Cat videos

a 2015 study published in computers in human behavior, a journal exploring computer use from a psychological perspective, researchers wondered who watches online cat videos. why, and to what effect? A survey of nearly 7000 internet users showed that consuming kitty videos boosts mood and energy. Participants pounced on the opportunity to watch feline footage at work, but they didn’t feel guilty because the positive procrastination left them refreshed and ready to tackle tough assignments actually upping their moods and productivity.

Boost your mood

 

1 Peter 5:6-7 - Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.

 

Humble yourself: admit that you will have moments, days, weeks maybe even seasons where things get hard. You are not above your emotions or circumstances. The old saying “God never promised you a rose garden is maybe somewhat true… but even if he did- it’s got thorns.” 

 

Now some might say: all this positive mantra stuff is just pure BS… not really- the bible actually speaks of it in detail. 

 

verse 8. finally brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable, if anything is excellent or praise worthy, think about such things. 

 

Reminds me of a joke about a young man in the army back in the day. His rifle broke and he didn’t know what to do. An old colonel said son I will tell you a secret. If you just go out there and with all your might, think and believe you have a gun you can shoot the enemy dead. Just go out there and shout gun gun gun gun and point your finger at them. Well sure enough it worked… to a point. Along came another man from the enemy camp straight at him… the young soldier yelled gun gun gun but he just kept coming… until finally he just stomped all over the young man breaking all the bones in his body… and the whole time yelling tank tank tank tank…

 

Set your mind on things above.

Set your mind on the great stories you will tell.

Set your mind on what God has done in others!

Set your mind on the testimony of others. 

Set your mind on what he has done in the past

Set your mind on all the Characteristics of God

 

Philippians 4:6-7 - do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

 

I like to thank God for the big boost.

Thank him for miracles, healing, financial breakthroughs, ministry opportunities, people led to Christ, people healed, family, friends, fun memories etc… and Then I remind myself it will all work out, it always does- God has got this.

This is why I love journaling. I have one journal just full of miracles,

I have an awesome jar

I have prayer journals

I have thank you notes on my computer

I have prophecies from others on my iPhone 

 

Finally remember Christ crucifixion handled a few things for us. 

His beating and bruising and shed blood was for our healing, 

His death and blood on the cross was for our salvation.

But he also spilt blood in the garden of Gethsemane while in prayer due to his intense mental anguish. 

So his blood covered our physical health, our spiritual health and yes our mental health. 

I plead the blood of Jesus on my mental health. I do not have to be moody, depressed, downtrodden because of the work Christ has already done for me in the garden.
