It discovered that the average person has 60,000 thoughts per day.\nWhat percentage of your 60,000 thoughts are negative?\nThe Cleveland Clinic discovered that 80% of our thoughts are negative. 48,000 negative thoughts a day!! We doubt our potential. We question our personal value. We wonder whether we can accomplish a task. We feel less than others.\nHow we think about ourselves influences our willingness to use our gifts to serve others.  Pastor-theologian John Stott said: “The greatest threat to your ministry is you.” The greatest threat to us walking in step with the Spirit, in alignment with the way God has formed and gifted us, is us! We self-sabotage.\nWhat does the Spirit of God say to those who feel less than?\nYou are drenched in the same Spirit as everyone else (vs. 12-13).\nThe body really needs you and you really need the body (vs. 14-20).","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/-yKS7rLxKXni1A8xlxG5cz-nFaYHFKZjz34ea74hKQo/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9jZjIy/M2MzNTQ0ODlhYzBh/M2E0NzQ3NDdjMTQ0/Njk1My5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
