Dear One,
So many destructive influences come into your mind from hearing offensive things, upsetting things, cruel things and depressing things.
Also, many destructive things come into your mind from what you see. You must protect your mind by choosing what you see and read. Don't view perverted things in any way, sexually perverted or emotionally perverted. Your eyes are the windows to the soul, so protect your mind by carefully choosing what you view.
Your thought life is dictated by what you hear and see.
In like mind, be cautious what you say. If you hear yourself voice words of fear or depression or doubt or unbelief, then it increases the power of that emotion in your own mind. You can eventually become a slave of that emotion if you meditate on it long enough.
That is what I meant when I said to protect your heart because out of it come the issues of life.
So pay heed to these instructions and be careful what you see and hear. That is being a good steward, protecting your mind from invading thoughts which will negatively influence your mind, your attitudes and your actions.
Your spiritual health is also influenced by what you hear and see. You can be knocked off of the Solid Rock by allowing negative influences to invade your mind.
Good stewardship begins with protecting your mind. You will be glad you did when you overcome every negative influence by stopping it at the door to your mind. Then you will not be robbed of your peace, joy, love and faith.
Love, God
