📜 TODAY'S SCRIPTURE: Psalm 131
O Lord, my heart is not lifted up;
my eyes are not raised too high;
I do not occupy myself with things
too great and too marvelous for me.
2 But I have calmed and quieted my soul,
like a weaned child with its mother;
like a weaned child is my soul within me.
3 O Israel, hope in the Lord
from this time forth and forevermore.

| 0:00.0 | Good morning my friends and welcome back. It is time for us to get our minds |
| 0:07.2 | aligned with the truth of God and I want to thank you for doing that. I want to |
| 0:11.2 | thank you for being disciplined, for making a determined effort to set aside some |
| 0:18.1 | time to get your mind on track for today because your thoughts will guide your steps. They will actually |
| 0:26.7 | dictate the way that you live. Let me give you a quick example. If you were sitting |
| 0:32.2 | in your chair there in your room wherever you are |
| 0:34.7 | in your car and you notice a spider crawling up the armrest next to you. Your mindset about that spider is going to impact your |
| 0:47.8 | reality isn't. It's going to dictate your actions. You're going to jump, scream, swipe at it. I don't know what you're going to do depends |
| 0:57.0 | on who you are and how you respond to spiders. But then what if you recognize that it's a rubber spider, it's a toy one of your kids |
| 1:06.9 | left around or some neighborhood kid threw into your car as a prank? You see our mindset, what we know to be true impacts the way that we behave, doesn't it? |
| 1:20.9 | It's a powerful principle for living once you recognize that. |
| 1:24.0 | And the morning mindset is my attempt at helping us all hit the reset button first thing in our day |
| 1:31.0 | so that we can get ourselves on track for the day and at least start out with |
| 1:36.5 | our mind in the right place. I want to do that today by looking at Psalm chapter 131. |
| 1:45.0 | Now as we look at scripture, there are oftentimes |
| 1:48.0 | that we need some help in understanding what it says, |
| 1:52.4 | in getting our minds around the truth and seeing the. what it means |
| 1:54.0 | around the truth and seeing the deeper ramifications |
| 1:56.2 | of what it means for our lives. |
| 1:58.4 | But sometimes there are Psalms or other sections of scripture that are just so plain in what they say. We don't |
| 2:07.4 | really need much help at all and Psalm chapter 131 is one of those. As I read these verses it just seems very obvious to me |
| 2:18.1 | what's being said but what may not be as obvious is why it's being said and how we should take it. |
