Day 35 "And You Are Beautiful"
Jesus, You’re Beautiful
Good Morning Beauties!
“And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.” Philippians 4:8 (NLT)
Our thoughts are so important to the Lord, He gives us a list of what to think about. We are to keep our minds on these beautiful things, not as a form of mind control, no, as a way to keep us free from the trappings from the darkness of the world.
Think of a time when someone walked into the room and you could just feel the weight of the world on their shoulders. Surely they were thinking of temporal things of this Earth. Real things like injustice, corruption, health crisis, and broken relationships are just a few burdens people carry and allow to keep their focus.
Now think of a time when someone walked into the room and their countenance was completely different. Bright eyed, smiling, and joy overflowing from every pore. Do you think they have no problems, no issues? Are they immune from the heartache of this world - no! They simply choose to follow Jesus and keep their minds stayed on eternal things like found in Philippians 4:8.
Whom do you represent most of the time? Scenario 1 or 2? What is the Spirit speaking to you through this scripture? Where is He redirecting your thoughts? Selah.
When I read this scripture, I have always had the same reaction - all of these things describe beautiful Jesus. He wants me to keep my mind on Him! Join me in celebrating our most Holy and Precious Lord.
