I believe that the media influences what we think in an over-powering way! This certainly includes the influence on the minds of our children and grandchildren - sometimes to the point of almost "brainwashing!" The first words in today's devotional make this point clear that, "There is a mighty battle going on for control of your mind."
This reading is such a good reminder about the need to spend time communing with our Lord. It is only through giving Him our time and attention that we are we able to have our minds filled with "Life and Peace."
What do you do in your family to ensure that the world is NOT taking over your mind and the mind of your children? Do you have time/subject constraints on television or movies? What about music and reading material? Please share your ideas with other readers since we have to make a conscious effort to do something if we truly want God's Love, Joy and Peace to fill our minds!
