A very respected Pastor wrote these and I think it will bless you.
Dear loved one,
An elder Cherokee Native American was teaching his grandchildren about life.
He said to them, 'A fight is going on inside me . . . it is a terrible fight and it is between two fierce opinions. Let’s call them Lions.
One Lion represents fear, anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.
The other Lion represents joy, peace, love, hope, sharing, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, friendship, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.
This same fight is going on inside you, and inside every other person, too.'
They thought about it for a minute and then one child asked his grandfather, 'Which Lion will win?'
The old Cherokee simply replied . . . 'The one you feed, not the one you wish’
It’s the start of a new week, take time to feed the Lion you want to win.
Here are 3 key things to pay attention to for you to feed the right Lion intentionally.

- Your eyes – What are you looking at?
- Your ears – What are you listening to?
- Your association – Who are you hanging out with?
Shalom,
