One of the most important elements for sustaining life is water, pure water. There are many things our bodies can live extended amounts of time without, but clean water is essential to our survival and is one of the most critical things our physical self requires. Another critical area that might be as acute is what we feed our minds - our mind diet. While we may be able to ignore deficiencies in this area longer than being deprived of water, the damage can be just as harmful and possibly more important as it can affect our spiritual, emotional and even our physical health. As Mathetes, it is important that we are intentional about our “mind diet” and Paul takes a critical opportunity in the book of Romans to help us appreciate the necessity of this idea. It is also important that we be mindful of the quality of our mind diet even more so than the quantity of input.
