Do you do yourselves thinking differently? Especially about the future?


Recommended Posts

I’m one who will buy out of season, cheap, because I know, yes, that season will come, and I will use it. Now, I just realized I’m thinking, “get by with what you have”. 
I’m thinking in more basic terms. Sort of nice. I’ve realized how much time I spent on, (sorry, the truth) my hair, and my nails. Oh yes, shoes. Now, those things are sort of put aside. Yes, I’m presentable, but those details that take up my time, are gone, poof, just gone. 
Got to keep up spiritually, or, what happens, is my thinking starts to not focus. And, of all the things we need, right now, is focus. For me, it is sort of a new way of life. And, I don’t mind it. 
What I do mind is what is causing it. A pandemic, and death. 
But, I think it has simplified my life. And, I want to use it to my advantage. 

I want to age without sharp corners, and have an obedient heart!

If it helps you keep your eye simple and focused on the kingdom, more power to you!  :thumbsup:

Um, well, yes. It does help keep me focused. 
I am in a household of an unbelieving mate, three cats,and, four big dogs. 
I’d best be turning inward, or this all would be crazy making! Big time.

So, thank you, kind brother!

In your household, 8 out of 9 are serving Jehovah. I hope they all bring you comfort.
