Name:

God has been doing phenomenal things in my life. I am no longer the person that I used to be; God has changed me. I have been made whole. I have been through the fire. There have been many days were things appeared to be down and very few days that looked good. God rescued me in the middle of my storm. When we call on God, he will answer us. However, there was a greater blessing in the mist of all of this. It was the relationship that He established between us. I have a real relationship with God now. Like any relationship there is a give and take. One thing I had to give was my time (there are other things but I won’t go there today). I had to take the time to study my word. That is how we get to know God; by studying his word. This Blogger shares the lessons that God has taught me.

The Word July 10, 2006

Philippians 4:8 (King James Version)
“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.”

-As the day goes on, we often allow ours thoughts to run around in our heads. We tend to think about the troubles that are in front of us and how we are going to try to solve them. The word teaches us to think about things that are good. The word also states, “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he:” (Proverbs 23:7). If my thoughts determine who I am, then I want my thoughts to be good and pure and not on my troubles. It is simple. If I think honest, just, pure, lovely, and good thoughts, I will produce these things. If I think on my troubles, then that is what I will produce. Lord, help me to keep my thoughts on things that are honest, just, pure, lovely, and good in your sight.
