I've filled my mind with things I wish I never had. And a lot of it was a result of not doing what my parents said.
I come here to encourage all of you to please guard your hearts! Guard what you fill your mind with. Once something is there it's hard to get out. And the more you feel your mind with something sinful or harmful to you, the more it builds up strongholds in your life. Strongholds that torment your later.
Your more of a man/woman to admit you can't handle something or shouldn't do something than to go ahead and do it.
And if your parents tell you not do something, please don't. A lot of things movies and music is filled with are not good. And I'm not meaning to judge. Sometimes you may just need to not listen to a song, you may need to turn a movie off or hit the mute or fast-forward button. Things like that will only hurt you later.
But the good news is, if you have done things, if you are being tormented for past things you've fed yourself, There is hope! Jesus Christ! Speak God' s word at the devil when He comes at you! Read the Bible and praise God! With His help the strongholds you have built up in your life can be broken down. For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Hebrews 4:12 (KJV)
Be the men and women God wants you to be and turn away from things you shouldn't see.
So I leave you with this, guard your heart!
Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.
Proverbs 4:23 (KJV)
