The Attitude of your Mind! “You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off the old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds”. -Eph 4 : 22 According to the Merriam Webster dictionary, the word attitude means an internal position or feeling with regard to something else. Other words often used as synonyms are: disposition, feeling, mood, opinion, sentiment, temper, tone, perspective, frame of mind, outlook, view, or morale. Airplane pilots often use attitude to describe their horizontal relationship with the runway when they land. If their attitude isnt aligned properly, the plane will make contact with the ground at the wrong angle and it will cause them to crash. In essence, your attitude is your inward disposition toward other things, such as people or circumstances. As in with an air plane, attitude is applied whenever you must deal with something other than yourself. According to God’s word, when you become a Christian, a part of your new creation is the development of new attitudes, the attitude of your mind, your inter disposition to circumstances and situations must be godly and Christ-like, Romans 12 : 2 says; ‘Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind’ , our mind must be renewed so that our attitudes can be changed, we cannot live our lives RE-ACTING, we must learn to ACT on purpose. It is often said that your attitude determines your altitude, how far up you will go will be determined by your attitudes; get rid of stinking attitudes and develop new attitudes that will help you reach glorious heights in God. Good Morning.
