"my thoughts become words, my words become actions. with our thoughts we change the world" is the scattered text imprinted on one of my t- shirts (courtesy of Jedidiah). the message of the shirt mimics the old adage, "so a thought, reap an action, etc." in a world of cliches such as 'talk is cheap' and 'don't just talk the talk, walk the walk,' it seems that we underestimate the importance of 'mere' thoughts and words a little too much. although thoughts dont count for much by themselves, they do nee to be in the right place in order for our words and actions to have any effect. lives arent changed (at least in the right way) by random actions and mindless words. to truly serve God our thoughts, mindset, and doctrine need to be right and this only happens by our own reflection and meditation.

I love this post!
People these days seem to downplay the importance of merely thinking. Not only can we not achieve without having this thought to back up our actions, but people need thought to grow in body, mind, and spirit. Thoughts are the building blocks for our lives and every thought is important.
I try to take time out of every day just to think about my life. I feel like without this thought, I would be lost.
