“Healthy Mind?” Blog #187

What exactly makes me a mentally healthy person?

Do I push myself to learn about spiritual truths today?

Can I find healthy thoughts in my daily actions?

When I am very sad and I don’t know what to do, this is usually when my mind begins to

stretch, and IF I am prayerful, I can follow a divine pattern. Yet, most of the time, in the

past, I have remained in the world and “of the world”. The heavy, weighty, dark feelings

that can come over me are because I allow it. There is not much choice when a mind

decides to GO BLACK. What do I mean? I mean times when I have allowed “dark patterns”

to take over. Times when I have stated to myself, “Whats the use?” Whether a person

struggles with depression, anxiety or addiction, there is one true statement here, “The

mind is in Charge totally.”

What I think decides my course of action for my entire day. I am in charge of me. By

deciding on a belief in Jesus Christ, I can break the chains of dark thinking now. I don’t

think a person can grasp the gravity of what is going on when a person just “waivers back

and forth” in their spiritual quest for accepting Jesus into their heart. It’s either YES or NO.

There is not an in between. I must have a purposeful life to live.

I believe that 2025 is an amazing year for people to change their belief system and bring

Jesus Christ into their life. Very famous philosophical, non-believing people have changed

over and found Christianity. Some people just had a fascination with Jesus. Other people

have had super-natural experiences and still others have let go of their battle with

addiction and had a life-changing super-natural experience.

A good example of extreme living was Nala Ray, once an atheist and in the porn industry

has since left it all, encountered Jesus and converted to Christianity. Then we have Ayaan

Hirsi Ali who is a Muslim by nature and a famous critic of Islam. She became disillusioned

with Islam after seeing its restorative aspects especially regarding women’s rights. She

became a Christian she writes because “ all people are made in the image of God -

human beings are people not things”. Prior to Jesus, Ayaan Ali found herself “spiritually

empty and, upon exploring Christianity, found it wasn’t just compelling, but true”. Then we

have Claire Elise Boucher, known professionally as “GRIMES”. Grimes is a Canadian

musician, singer, song-writer, record producer, music video director and visual artist. She

recently posted on line that she was embarrassed to admit that she was getting into

Christianity as it was the ONLY thing to stop her from vaping. Fascinating to see how

many people, especially celebrity conversions, say they were once opposed to Jesus

and now are taking steps to only embrace HIM.

These testimonials across different spheres of influence show a profound leap in FAITH.

My life is like a spider web, when I am in the middle of it, I am caught up and at times no

idea how to escape. Yet, when I close my eyes, I step aside and see the beautiful intricate

pattern Jesus has painted for me to step out of my pain, isolation and all hopelessness.

Can I find a way to embrace my Healthy mind today?
