See the good in others
Today's word: Philippians 4:4-9
4Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Is it easy for you to see the faults instead of the good points in others? That seems to come naturally, but you can train yourself to concentrate on what you like about others. Ask God to help you love others as He does.
To memorize: Philippians 4:8
if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things

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 praiseworthy—think about such things. 9Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
How about you?Is it easy for you to see the faults instead of the good points in others? That seems to come naturally, but you can train yourself to concentrate on what you like about others. Ask God to help you love others as He does.

Amen...think good stuff....don't fill your mind with negative thoughts, worries & nonsense.
THink of things ...that are good.....that you can give praise to God for. You know what, if u're a negative thinker, your life will be negative. If you always think nonsense, your life will be purposeless. But if you think of praiseworthy nobles things - it will be evident in your lifestyle. So choose wisely what u think
