Sweet Thoughts
Finally, brothers and sisters, 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. --- Philippians 4:8

It is alright for us to think about things that make life more enjoyable. As a matter of fact, scripture admonishes us to do just that. Why? Because the Lord is ever present with us, and He prefers that we let Him bear our concerns and anxieties so we can be free to rejoice about Him! He's got everything that concerns our lives covered! That in itself is a sweet thought, isn't it? Have you noticed how beautiful the changing colors of the tree leaves are this time of year? Yesterday I saw a little boy no more than three years old in the grocery store having a deep belly laugh as he hugged a large pumpkin! His joy was contagious! Even though much has changed, our church is doing a phenomenal job of keeping our members engaged and informed with ministry activities. We are love in action! The early morning chill touches me with joy as I think about the beautiful nature of God all around me! Such sweet thoughts are good for your spirit and your mind, and they please the Lord! What sweet thoughts are on your mind today?
