My superpower this week was spirituality. I helped myself stay on track by making sure to spend time in my Bible every morning this week. I learned that we can take every thought captive. We CAN replace stinkin' thinkin' with the victorious Word of God! We can put food in its proper perspective in life--fuel, period. I learned it is wise to plan. Only fools don't--we are all going to die.
I know where I am headed. I'm just not in any hurry to get there. So I'm getting healthier every day so I can get old and gray and stay productive long into retirement!
-- II Cor 10: 5 We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
Proverbs 23:1-8Amplified Bible (AMP) On Life and Conduct
1 When you sit down to dine with a ruler, consider carefully what is [set] before you;
2 For you will put a knife to your throat if you are a man of great appetite.
3 Do not desire his delicacies, for it is deceptive food [offered to you with questionable motives].
4 Do not weary yourself [with the overwhelming desire] to gain wealth; cease from your own understanding of it.
5 When you set your eyes on wealth, it is [suddenly] gone. For wealth certainly makes itself wings like an eagle that flies to the heavens.
6 Do not eat the bread of a selfish man, or desire his delicacies;
7 For as he thinks in his heart, so is he [in behavior—one who manipulates]. He says to you, “Eat and drink,” yet his heart is not with you [but it is begrudging the cost].
8 The morsel which you have eaten you will vomit up, and you will waste your compliments.
Proverbs 13:16
A wise man thinks ahead; a fool doesn’t and even brags about it!
Ecclesiastes 7:4
Yes, a wise man thinks much of death, while the fool thinks only of having a good time now.
