Tuesday’s Musings: Evil or Inspiration?


Philippians 4:8 (NIV)  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.

I’m so happy that our missions committee organized a book, music and movie fair.  I have some great additions to my music library now and loaded up on books.  I’m a fast reader and so is Joe.  We’ll donate most of what we purchased back for the next sale. The last three books I read were murder mysteries. I like those but by chance these three had particularly evil villains. Two of the books included the paranormal.  When I finish the one I’m reading now I’m going to read something light and funny.  I can sense a change in spirit.  What we take in to ourselves become part of us.  It is locked in the memory cells of our brains. What are you watching, listening to, passing along on Facebook or e-mails? It is negative or uplifting? Maybe you should consider how it might be subtlety affecting you.  Whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is excellent – think on these things.  It will make a difference in your attitude and spirit.

Holy God, help us to consider all the excellent things you provide for us.  Help us to move out of the darkness into your light.  We pray in the most excellent name of your Son, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Blessings,
Paige
