Watch Out on Your Thoughts

I was answering my notifications on the thread that I posted yesterday when a proverb entered my mind. This proverb "The devil plays with an idle mind" is very true. When we are not doing anything we tend to think of other people and sometimes we make suspicions that led to quarrelling most specially in relationships. So before I close my eyes to sleep tonight, I would like to leave this reminder to always watch out whatever thoughts come into our mind. Be it beautiful thoughts that will improve our relationships with other people.

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 praiseworthy--think about such things. Philippians 4:8

Sometimes I asked forgiveness for my thoughts.

When we are not busy and not doing anything, we tend to overthink. And overthinking can lead us to different sorts of negative conclusions.

@toniganzon I have proven it true with my relationship with my boyfriend. So, whenever I feel that I am being paranoid again, I try hard to deviate my attention on other things which are more beneficial.

@annierose Over thinking in a relationship is a no no.

Sometimes, it is very difficult to always think positive.

Absolutely @annierose , if we don't keep our minds busy, all that worries us surfaces. It is not always easy to have only good thoughts though. But we should really try.
