Whoa! Or as my kids would say, "uh oh!" My thoughts? Why is He considering those? Uh Oh! Looks like we have to start thinking about what we are thinking about! I don't know if you've ever seen a Joyce Meyer conference ~ but here in S.C. she's on in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Each minute with her is like a golden nugget of information. She had an entire series on "thinking about what you are thinking about" that lets say, BLEW ME AWAY! Satan used to fill my mind with negative thoughts before my feet even hit the floor in the morning. Now, he doesn't! Why? I asked GOD to fill my thoughts in the morning. I asked and I received! Satan used to flood my brain while driving. Not anymore. Why? I found a Christian radio station that I love. So now I look like a fanatic riding up and down the road praising Jesus! How fun! What I'm trying to convey to you is "garbage in, garbage out." If you fill your mind with garbage, your thoughts will be garbage thoughts. To get rid of those thoughts, ask God to help you and renew your mind with reading the Word. Don't tell me you don't have time or that you don't understand it. Excuses, excuses. We all have the same 24 hours in a day. Ask God to help you, He will.
And now, one final thought. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right , and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about the things that are excellent and worthy of praise. Philippians 4:8
