Philippians 4:8-9

Your Thoughts

Only God fits this list perfectly.

The alternative is to think about what is false, wrong, tainted, second-rate, and temporary.

We cannot be passive about what is going on in our minds.

We must take responsibility to be sure our minds are in the right place.

Your Practice

We have a tremendous capacity to learn and must use it wisely.

Having examples to follow is a big part of learning.

The point of learning is to put it into practice.

What are you doing with what you have learned?

The Result

We must remember that God is always there (Hebrews 13:5).

Even though God is always there, sometimes we don’t see it or experience peace.

We miss His presence when our minds are elsewhere.

We don’t experience His peace if we don’t practice what we learned.
