Praising Thoughts
I know I've said this before, but I need all the help I can get when it comes to my tongue and my thoughts.
Lord, if people knew what I was thinking at any given time, I would be on the most wanted list.
My thoughts alone are a deadly weapon who need to be railed in. So when I came across this little devotional, I knew hope abound for me.
I need to take a closer look at how I use my thoughts and turn them into a weapon of praise instead of a weapon of arson!
God Bless.
And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. (NLT) -Philippians 4:8
Ever heard of the saying "You are what you eat?" Well, the same is true with your thoughts; you become what you think. Fixing our thoughts on the positive allows our outlook to be positive, even if we are surrounded by negativity.
Paul is trying to show us that we can rise above behaviors we detest. It all starts with thoughts, which lead to actions, and eventually become habits.
