Just thinking

Philippians 4:8

I wonder how much thought we put into what we think about. If we reflect on how we think and what we dwell on many of us would probably hope that no one found out. It seems natural and even attractive to think negative, discouraging, demeaning and impure thoughts about ourselves and others. These thoughts affect our attitudes and our actions. Is it surprising then that as followers of Jesus we are instructed to think differently? It is hard work to train our mind to appreciate pure, positive and praiseworthy things. When we do we realise that it feels right because it resonates with the Spirit living within us. What do you think about and dwell on?
