Trust in the Lord and do good.
—Psalm 37:3
Your mindset determines how you deal with life, and how you deal with life determines the outcome of life. Put your mind to it we’re told, and you can accomplish anything. “As you think, so shall you become,” said Bruce Lee. It’s a case of mind over matter.
Change your thoughts, and you change your life.
I believe that.
But, even more, I believe the mindset of Psalm 37:3–7, where we’re treated to these positive mood boosters:
Trust in the Lord and do good (v. 3).
Delight yourself in the Lord (v. 4).
Commit your way to the Lord (v. 5).
Be patient and wait for the Lord (v. 7).
That’s not bootstrap psychology. It’s the real deal.
Change your thoughts
and you change your life.
