The Brain that God Created in Us. . . . fascinating.

I have thoroughly enjoyed this book, Who Switched Off My Brain - Controlling toxic thoughts and emotions, because it points to the amazing design of our Creator to shape our brain and give it good health.  What is even more intriguing is that God's advice on how to think (thankful living, praise, avoid temptations, avoid negative thinking, dwell on the positives) actually affects our health.

God wants us to have good health AND those who read and follow His Word as laid out in the Bible get the benefits.  Thank you Jesus!  That is so cool.

Here are some passages that really touch on the topic of the book:

2 Corinthians 10:5

New International Version (NIV)

5 We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.

Deuteronomy 30:19-20

New International Version (NIV)

19 This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live 20 and that you may love the Lord your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the Lord is your life, and he will give you many years in the land he swore to give to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
