How will you direct your thoughts today? Will you obey the words of Philippians 4:8, by dwelling upon those things that are true and honorable and right? Or will you allow your thoughts to be hijacked by the negativity that seems to dominate our troubled world? Are you fearful, angry, bored, or worried? 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 everyday 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!
