Philippians 4:8 - Think On These Things.

Philippians 4:8: Think On These Things.

Philippians 4:8 (NIV) Finally, brothers, whatever is true, 
whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is 
lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy 
- think about such things. 

COMMENTARY PEARL

   If anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about such 
things. This may sound easy, but it's actually quite countercultural. 
People who work in the media almost always shine their spotlights on 
what is wrong. They rarely bother to report good things that are 
happening - especially the many good things My people are doing. 
   Having a positive focus is not only countercultural; it's 
contrary to human nature. Your mind is a magnificent creation, but it is 
deeply fallen. When Adam and Eve rebelled against Me in the Garden of 
Eden, everything was damaged by the Fall. As a result, seeking to 
focus on excellent things does not come naturally to you. It requires 
persistent effort - making the right choice over and over again. Daily, 
moment by moment, you choose to look for what is good. 
   In spite of the massive problems in your world, much remains 
that is worthy of praise. Moreover, the One who is most praiseworthy 
is the One who is right beside you - closer than your thoughts. 
Rejoice in Me, beloved! (Phi. 4:8; Gen. 3:6; Pro. 16:16; Psa. 73:23)
