God does not call you to be comfortable but holy. Impact the world around you no mater how uncomfortable you are.
Verse from Matthew 15:17-20
“Don’t you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body? But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. For out of the heart come evil thoughts—murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander. These are what defile a person; but eating with unwashed hands does not defile them.”
Clean and Unclean
James 3:5-6
Likewise, the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole body, sets the whole course of one’s life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell.
Also at Church to day the pastor talked about a similar subject.
Do you want to get well?
1 Thessalonians 5:23
May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Spirit- Romans 10:9, 2 Corinthians 5:21, Matthew 16:26
Soul- (whole or broken) Psalm 51:17
My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you, God, will not despise.
When you read thoughts verses you get 5 different things that we all struggle with and need to get well from. Some will have one some will have all,
1 Anger
2 Envy or Jealousy
3 Controlling you Tongue
4 Sexual Immorality
5 Anxiety
To get well from these you first
-Admit the Problem
-Discipline and will power
-Inner Healing
Physically- Does God care about your health? Does God still heal today?
Hope that helps you if you are going through any thing, its helping me.
