Sorry its taken so long to write to my devote followers! Most of you only came to my blog because you saw a the post "From Undiscovered Model, to Undiscovered Missionary." Hey, No judgement. Ahahaha I have learned to live with my curse. 
What a lot of people fail to pick out in that post is the words, they are too busy looking at the pictures! Well if that post was ever read, one would realize my life is not normal, due to my mother of course. Having a creative mom, always lead to a...creative child. Who can say what "normal" is anyway!
I am grateful for my brain, normal or not. I mean who doesn't love having a floating mass of muscle, stuffed into your skull that controls every part of your body. Every bodily function physical and mental that is taken, is first processed through a lump of meat suspended in cranial fluid, precariously perched upon a long tower of stacked vertebrate.
With its dangerously designed position upon our shoulders, have anyone of us ever really stopped to think how precious and valuable a working brain is? Have we ever stopped to think of the importance of keeping our brain strong?
If we have, then we have thought about the power of our thoughts. What we think, thought, and thunk determine what we speak, seek, and want. With the effortless action of thinking, our lives are lived. So if we think it, we really CAN, or will, tend to do it.
With that, how important is it to have virtuous thoughts. If we are always having filth and sensual scenes dumped into our mind through our senses, how are we suppose to EVER accomplish the important tasks God has for us! On a more personal scale, how are we suppose to accomplish the important tasks our kids, husband, wife, or friends, NEED of us? If we are not constantly using our will to intake appropriate material, it will overflow with crap. We need to flush the crap.
God will not compete with our will. If we are not willing to feed our mental belly with nourishing nutrition, it will be filled with rotting sweet relish wether we want it or not (because no one really likes sweet relish). We would never go eat at that hotdog place that serves their food rotting and sweet relish topped. THEN WHY do we all do that with our minds, why is sweet relish always being gladly partaken of in our minds.
We allow random people to influence us with their filthy internet posts. We read miss-named author's inappropriate literature. We watch shows and videos filled with explicit viewings. We eat sweet relish daily.
Why don't we make more of an effort to feed or Minds with healthy growth stimulating experiences? Everyone wants the hot beach body to impress others, but no one seems to be asking Google "how do i get the hot beach mind." You know the person that makes changes in the food it feeds its mind, makes changes in the world they live.
If our minds are strong, when that rotten relish topped hotdog is dangling in front of us, we will be able to push it away. We will be able to have virtuous thoughts that lead to virtuous actions.
It all starts with understanding the power of our thoughts. That our hunk of meat floating in cranial fluid, sits or sinks upon the foundation we think it upon.
So sit upon concrete thoughts or sink with your sensual appetites.
Listen to your healthy cravings when they start to say, "think something I'm giving up on you."
