Philippians - Living in the Wordعينة

Key Verse:

Philippians 4:8

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

Reflection:

What you think about the most determines the direction of your life. Where you fix your eyes is where you will go! A good rule of thumb when downhill skiing or snowboarding through a wooded area is this: Don't look at the tree! If you look at the tree, there's a good chance you'll hit the tree. Instead, look at the path, focusing on where you're going instead of where you don't want to go. The same is true here. Fix your eyes on the things that are true, honorable, just, pure, lovely, and commendable. That's where you want to be! That’s where the Lord is.

Response:
