Think on These Things

If only we would apply this scripture to everything in our lives. Would we then reconsider what we dwell on? There are many unholy, unlovely and impure things in this world. It’s there all around us. It’s so important not to allow ourselves to dwell on these things that are contrary to God’s word, so we ourselves are not caught up in it. We need to dwell on what is pure and lovely. God’s word is the place to start.

We also can dwell on negative thinking towards others or ourselves that needs to be replaced with positive thinking. We can be products of our upbringing, but we don’t have to stay that way. God can bring about change in our thinking. His word is truth, and this truth will set us free. As we dwell on what is true, pure, lovely, kind and gracious—it will transform us.

Think on these things!

Whatever is true, wholesome and kind,

Just and pure, let it transform our minds.
