Playlists

**Sit quietly, eyes closed and in silence for one minute before reading.**

    Most of us have playlists. We have different playlists for different workouts (disclaimer: I have A playlist for A workout), a playlist for times of productivity, a playlist to relax, etc. We tailor these playlists according to the function of what we are doing or maybe emotions that we want to evoke. Playlists have great power, they are put together by us and we can control what is on repeat and how long they play.

    We also have playlists in our minds. These are lists that have been put together by us, have great power and we can control what is on repeat and how long they play. Unfortunately these mental playlists are often negative. We rehearse words spoken to us that were (and are) hurtful, we have a failure on repeat or we might remind ourselves of what we think is unlovely about us.

    What playlist do you have playing? Spend some time in prayer and ask God to help you be attentive to the playlists that are on repeat in your mind.

    How will you reset your playlist? What words of truth will be your songs?

**Sit again in silence for as long as is available to you.**
