How do you want to be defined?

S – Scripture

Philippians 4 v. 8  Finally, Brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is gracious, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

O – Observation

This is God’s prescription for living a Christian Life. He recognizes that we are sinful. Jesus says in Matthew 15 v. 18, “But what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the Heart and this defiles a man.” I think you could change to that to be – Defines a man. It’s so easy to be an armchair quarterback, and complain about things, or see and want things that might be contrary to what God wants you to have. No. We need to dwell on the positive. We need to be lights in this dark world.

A – Application

So… How am I defined? Are my thoughts always focusing on the honorable, pure, lovely, just and
gracious?

P – Prayer

Jesus. Help me to think about these things at all times. Love Will.
