Let 'em Habit
From snacking on too much sugar, to an addiction that controls your behaviour, habits affect us all. And, if we're really honest, many of us are likely to be dealing with a habit in some capacity right now. Habits haunt us, and sometimes they merge so closely into our lifestyle that it takes a long time to acknowledge that something needs to change (ever blocked out what you *know* God is telling you to stop?).
So, something needs to change. The Bible says, 'let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think' (Romans 12:2 NLT). Which is fair enough, until it comes to something that controls us and/or we don't reallyyy want to let it go, right? But let's break it down. God wants to transform the way we process stuff, so that our thoughts glorify Him more. Good news: He won't leave us to try to blindly accomplish a new mindset on our own. He wants to lead us to places we never knew we could reach, because you 'can do all things through Christ' (Philippians 4:13 NKJV).
How do we start properly relying on God? Invite Him into the dark spaces of your mind, so that you can start to focus on Him instead. Take a look at Romans 3:22; Jesus is our righteousness. Not us. The sin-covering grace that He offers us is enough to cover any slip ups you make, and carry you all the way to breaking your habit.
