In “putting on the mind of Christ”, the most important thing to put on your mind is radical trust in God.
Everyone reading this probably has some trust in God; this trust is a gift from God, who wants to see it grow in you. Most believers have enough trust in God so as not to get very upset in small matters. But in greater matters, which mean a great deal to you, you may lack sufficient trust in God to remain in God’s peace, love and joy, while you and God together deal with the situation.
Your degree of emotional pain is a very accurate measure of your level of trust in each particular situation. Try to trust God more and more with each passing day; and ask God again and again to increase your trust. If you are able to trust God completely in a given situation, your mind will experience no emotional pain.
