Why Your Brain Automatically Plans for Disaster Instead of Blessing
There are times I stand back in awe at how automatically our minds steer toward the negative.
You're trying so hard to prepare yourself, have next steps planned out, that you rarely give enough thought to what happens if it actually works out. We've trained ourselves to expect mutually assured destruction instead of mutually assured blessing.
Being prepared means expecting the worst.
Being prepared means training your mind to expect what Jesus Christ already promised.
It's so important that we reverse engineer every situation and not automatically default to the bad. Yes, we all go through things. But when we're kids, we think everything will work out. Faith isn't ignoring reality—it's refusing to let negativity be your automatic setting.
What situation are you automatically assuming will fail that Jesus Christ is actually blessing?
