Hang Gliding

Jan 31, 2025

When I first woke up this morning, I was meditating on a podcast that I listened to last night from Tim Ross and Dr. Anita Phillips. It was so good. I had just brewed some tea that helps me fall asleep while listening, and although I was fading, I was holding on because I wanted to finish this podcast. It was so profound.

As I was thinking about all the nuggets I got from it, I was still lying in bed with my wife, and I was so excited. I know I was excited because she said, “You know you’re loud, right?” As soon as I got done, though, it felt like these negative thoughts started to hang glide off a cliff. And it seemed like those negative thoughts were gliding into more negative thoughts and even more negative thoughts until the expression started to show on my face. What is happening? What is going on?

It really showed me how fast the mind moves and how everything can change in an instant. You’ve got to have control over your thoughts.

Two scriptures come to me in these moments: 2 Corinthians 10:5, where we’re reminded to take every thought captive and make it obedient to Christ, and Romans 12:2, where we’re called to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. I’m going to think on these scriptures and get myself back aligned so that I can finish my day strong.

This may be you today, and this blog is right on time for you, or maybe it’ll be you another day, and my hope is that you remember this when it happens.

So, if you find yourself feeling like your thoughts are spiraling out of control—like they’re hang gliding off a cliff with no direction—remember that you don’t have to let them. God’s word gives us the power to take every thought captive and bring it into alignment with His truth. Whether it’s 2 Corinthians 10:5, reminding us to make our thoughts obedient to Christ, or Romans 12:2, encouraging us to renew our minds, we have the tools to shift our thinking. Take a moment, meditate on these scriptures, and ground yourself in what’s true.

Remember, you have the authority to steer your thoughts in the right direction, just like a hang glider needs the pilot to take control. Stay strong, stay focused, and finish your day with peace.
