It’s so easy to become tangled up in our own thoughts. Even while I was reading The Mind Connection, my mind would begin to wander, thinking of all the activities I needed to accomplish after finishing this one chapter. Which, in turn, would force me to read the chapter slower and get to the rest of my day at a later time.

In The Mind Connection, Joyce Meyer speaks to the reader regarding the connection between our thoughts, words, and actions. Each thought we have can and will come through when we mull something over – may it be good or bad. No matter how hard we try to keep our thoughts internal, they will find a way to come forth.

Using Scripture, personal stories, and reflection, Meyer provides suggestions on how to clear the mind from the clutter that can come with too many thoughts. As she points out in her book, we cannot control what others say, think, or do, but we can control ourselves. Though it may not be easy, with God’s help all is possible. And in turn, while we are not here to control the change in another person, we can be aware that God is able, and to leave it in His hands.

One of my favorite lines, near the end of the book, sums up the book for me in so many ways. “It is true that what is in our heart comes out of our mouth, but it is also true that what we speak out of mouths will get into our hearts.” Our thoughts are connected to our words, and our words reveal what we keep within our heart.

Broken into four sections with multiple chapters in each, The Mind Connection breaks down how to look within and outside of ourselves. Each chapter is set up in a similar fashion, providing stories and Scripture to provide evidence to her argument.
I was excited to learn that the great Joyce Meyer’s new book, The Mind Connection, was released on September 1, 2015! I was even more excited when I was offered a copy so that I could share the great news with all of you too!

Joyce Meyers expands on the wisdom of her bestselling books, Battlefield of the Mind and Power Thoughts, to explain how to improve the quality of your thoughts and your life. She explores the undeniable connection between the mind, mouth, moods, and attitudes, so that you can develop and maintain the right mental position to overcome every challenge you face. Through practical advice and Scriptural insights, Joyce will help you learn to think with purpose, gain greater confidence, and claim the joyful life you were meant to lead.

The chapter titles of The Mind Connection include:

The Life You’ve Always Wanted
Positive Self-Talk
The Power of Focus
How Your Thoughts Affect Your Physical and Emotional Health
How to Get Your Mind Back When You Feel Like You Have Lost It

The inspiration the Joyce Meyer shares is always a gift when she is speaking live from the pulpit or whether you are reading her books. She provides very deep insight on how we control our destiny and personal decisions through prayer and thoughtful contemplation. The book is broken into four sections that break down how we need to look within and outside of ourselves. Each chapter is set up similarly – they provide stories and Scripture supporting Joyce Meyers’ position. The book flows as if she is presenting to you live, and it is easy to follow along as if I were learning from her morning sermon.

In this book, Joyce Meyer speaks to each of us readers discussing the connection between our thoughts, words, and actions.

During a time of personal uncertainty, emptiness and sadness, the mere title of this book moved something inside of me; enough to purchase it with the strong intent of reading it, later that evening. Needless to say, I tried several times, but never felt in the mood, although, I knew it would be a good read.
Six months later, experiencing the same feelings, I took a trip to visit some terminally ill, elder family members and carried this book, as part of my reading.
Well!! A good read doesn’t begin to describe this book!! It is powerful, enjoyable, moving, easy to read, entertaining, thought provoking, emotional, educational, nurturing and full of love. WOW! All that packed into 119 pages! It is simply written, as though, the author was conversing with me and yet, in other parts, I could hear the Voice of God telling me very simply, that I was BELOVED, a child of His. The power of this book is so Amazing!! As, I write these words, I have an intense feeling of being loved, emotional stirrings in the bottom of my gut and goosebumps on my arms. I am more in touch with God in my daily life, His loving and tender Presence and Voice everywhere, in everything. This book has changed my prior feelings of emptiness, sadness and uncertainty to a more joyful, simple, thankful, childlike approach to living, a sense of peace within myself, a clarity and certainty of my path in life and a powerful, moving love for God in my moment to moment living. Is my life 100 % perfect? Yes, and No, but as I work with God towards that moment of Utopia; I am thankful, centered and at peace in the knowledge that I am BELOVED, safe in God’s Love for me and that everything will unfold, exactly as it is meant to be for me, with my prayer,love,faith and willingness to see God’s message for me.
