Philippians 4:8
8Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praise worthy—think about such things.
I would like for us to reflect on the truth revealed in Philippians 4:8: the God who formed your mind cares about what you put in it. He cares about it because He knows that what you regularly bring before your mind eventually shapes your mind and determines the kind of person you become. Nothing "passes through" your mind - every book you read, every TV show you watch, every website you visit, every conversation you have will rewire your brain and shape you in significant ways. We think we can violate this principle. We might say, "That show I watch is a little trashy, but I don't let it affect me." That's like saying, "I'm going to step off the roof, but I will choose not to hit the ground." What you allow to occupy your cranial cavity will determine your speech, your actions, your decisions, and your destiny. What you think is what you are.
Prayerfully,
Bro. Clayton
