Introduction
Have you ever had a thought so bizarre that you thought to yourself, “Where in the world did that come from!? I’ll just keep this little thought to myself so people don’t think I’m crazy.”
Unwanted thoughts & bizarre thoughts are something that most people experience. In fact, unwanted thoughts are so common and frequent to the human experience that most people quickly dismiss these thoughts and move on with their lives with little to no memory of the thought ever occurring.
However, this is not the experience of all people. There are those whose experience with unwanted thoughts is especially troubling to the degree that their experience with the unwanted thought seriously inhibits living an enjoyable God-pleasing life. Oftentimes these individuals are living under the weight of depression, PTSD, OCD, or various forms of anxiety. They want very badly to understand where these thoughts come from, and are even more desperate to rid themselves of troubling thoughts. Certainly, God’s word offers great help in responding to intrusive thoughts in a God-pleasing manner.
