Training Our Minds to Follow the Spirit
“For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.” — Romans 8:5 (NASB 1995)
In a home, habits of the mind shape the mood of the household. When our thoughts drift toward worry, resentment, or comparison, it impacts the atmosphere.
But the Spirit teaches us a better way—to set our minds on what is true, noble, and eternal. As mothers, our example invites children into a Spirit-led thought life.
Let’s model how to take thoughts captive and set them on Christ.
Family Talk:
- What kinds of things do we think about most in this home?
- How can we encourage each other to think like Jesus?
Prayer:
Holy Spirit, renew our minds. Help us notice when our thoughts wander and bring them back to what is good and true. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
