Overview

Life catches us off guard at times. We might find ourselves in doubt, afraid, and confused. Sometimes, it even feels like we're under attack--and that's because we are! A war is waged in our minds, and the enemy uses every tool at his disposal to weaken our outlook and our relationship with God. But we have been given the power to fight back. And we must fight back one day at a time, one battle at a time.

Excerpt from: Battlefield of the Mind for Kids by Joyce Meyer

Chapter 1
You've Got Another Think Coming!
Figuring out what you really think is not an easy job. In fact, even when you think you know what you think, you may be surprised sometimes to find out you don't really think that at all. Sometimes you think something because you have a friend who thinks it, and you agree because that's part of what makes you friends.

For example, if your friend's favorite color is purple, you might both agree to have that be your favorite color and wear it every chance you get. Later, though, you might see something orange and love it and begin to wonder if maybe orange is really your favorite color. If you tell your friend that orange is your favorite color, then you've begun in a simple way to realize what it means to think for yourself.

It's good to have people who agree with the way you think. It's an even better idea to know why you think as you do. If you're not really sure what you think, or you've been thinking some very odd things that may not be true at all, then "you've got another think coming." God has a plan to help you discover how to think more clearly.

In Philippians 4:8, God gave us some great examples of things to think about. We're told, "Think about the things that are good and worthy of praise. Think about the things that are true and honorable and right and pure and beautiful and respected." The author goes on to say that if we do that, then the God who gives peace will be with us.

"Well, what do you think?" Don't your friends ask you that all the time? From picking out a movie to talking about favorite music groups, your friends care about what you think. When it comes to making choices of any kind, it's helpful to understand why you choose what you do. Those choices come from how you think!
