To think different, implies a change in the content of our thoughts

Thinking Differently. Thinking Different. Thinking Differently
It seems like a small difference, but these phrases reflect much more than simply good or bad grammar. The difference between the two is the difference between freedom and bondage.
An adjective (different) describes a person place or thing. An adverb (differently) describes an action. NewsUCU_Sept_SMALL_600_450_70_c1_center_center_0_0_1.jpgTo think different, implies a change in the content of our thoughts. The action would be described this way.
“Don’t think this…think that”…“don’t wear this outfit…wear that one”
The implication is to change the content, information, or data in your mind. A woman’s perogative, right?
To think differently implies a change in the way we think. The action would be described this way.
“Open the eyes of my heart that I might see the power you have extended to me, in Your Son, Jesus”
Now, using the adverb instead of the adjective, we are not trying to change the thoughts in our mind, rather, we are making an overall change in the way that thoughts get in, and what we do with them once they are in. Hmmmm.Certain kinds of thoughts can only enter in through certain ways of thinking. You cannot apprehend falling in love through objective reason and logical deduction. You might be able to describe things that happen when you fall in love through those cognitive processes; but to actually experience it…well, cognition is simply not the channel upon which love is broadcast. The irony is, that one who logically deducts the concepts of love may consider himself to know love.esus invites us to think differently when He says “Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand” The word repent, literally means “to think differently…”. Sadly we often hear this as Jesus admonishment to think different. We hear this as if He wants us to change the content of our minds. ”Stop stealing, start praying, stop cursing, start giving”. Exchange the bad content for good content. Change the Knowledge of Evil for the Knowledge of Good. If we think different, the best we can hope for is that, once again, we can try harder.
If we think differently, it is as if we change the lenses over our eyes, and the filters over our ears. If we see things differently, it is almost impossible to do things the same. Hear Jesus words differently:
“Repent for the Kingdom of God is at hand”…”Change the way you take in reality, because the realm of God, has come among men…”
Think differently. He is near.
