Rely on God

Rely on God
Well,I'm listening to the book my friend suggested(The Battlefield of the Mind by Joyce Meyer) and asked me to listen/ read because of my mental health issues. I'm really trying to keep an open mind and couple things are okay,like in the book where it says how our thoughts affect our behavior and way of living... but it's heavily Christian ,I feel like I'm listening to a sermon,"devil" this and biblical truth that constant scripture, it just rubs me wrong. I get the intent and appreciate that she wanted to help,but from what I've been hearing it's just not for me.

My friend said it changed her life and she thought it would change mine but honestly I could barely get through chapter 1:
"You can't fight with determination alone, you need to pray and ask God

Paraphrasing but 'dont be of the flesh,being in the flesh allows for trouble'

Choose Gods way of thinking,the Devil lies to you.
and lots of scriptures
atheist conversions
