The mind of Christ

To receive when others reject, to treat each one with true respect,
To shield when others throw stones, to be with one who’s all alone,
To think and choose to see the very best,
To live like this is nothing less than to possess

The mind of Christ, my highest goal
The Lords delight, the desire of my soul
The Fathers heart will always guide my life
If I will have in me the mind of Christ

To build up when others tear down, to seek the lost until they’re found,
To give grace where it’s needed most, rejecting pride when others boast,
To sacrifice my all without regret,
To live like this is nothing less than to possess.

The mind of Christ, my highest goal
The Lords delight, the desire of my soul
The Fathers heart will always guide my life
If I will have in me the mind of Christ


1 Cor 2:5 "Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:"

Thanks mom for reminding me of it!

"For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom his whole family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your heart through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Ephesians 3:14-19
I love you.
