Finally brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable,
Whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely,
Whatever is commendable – if there is any moral excellence
And if there is any praise – dwell on these things.

PHILIPPIANS 4:8 HCSB
How will you direct your thoughts today? Will you obey
the words of Philippians 4:8 by dwelling upon those things that are honorable,
just, and commendable? Or will you allow your thoughts to be hijacked by the negativity
that seems to dominate our trouble world? Are you so preoccupied with the
concerns of this day that you fail to thank God for the promise of eternity?
Are you confused, bitter, or pessimistic? If so, God wants to have a little
talk with you.
God intends that you experience joy and abundance. So, today and every day hereafter, celebrate the life that God has given you by focusing your thoughts upon those things that are worthy of praise. Today, count your blessings instead of your hardships. And thank the Giver of all things good for gifts that are simply too numerous to count.
In Christ,
