Most of us don’t realize that our thoughts are mostly opinions, perceptions, or ideas. We tend to go about our business under the assumption that what we are thinking is true. But that’s just not the case. It is worth asking yourself if your thought is true, if it is serving you and if it aligns with God’s truth.
You have free will to question and choose your thoughts—a crucial step in the renewing of your mind.

In this premier episode, Diana shares why renewing your mind is so important. Our brain offers thousands of thoughts each day, but when we don’t stop to question if they are true, if they serve us, or how they make us feel, we allow them to sabotage our lives.
