Think about such things.

A reminder that He does love me.

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.

Philippians 4:8

This verse sums up how I (we) should be thinking.

True- the only certain truth is the Word of God and who Christ is

Noble- possessing outstanding qualities (in the Bible this referred to outward and inward characteristics)

Right- pretty sure that the Ten Commandments list the do's in life

Pure- "unmixed with any other matter," "free from dust, dirt, or taint" (both from Websters)Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Matthew 5:8

Everyone who has this hope in him purifies himself, just as he is pure. 1 John 3:3

Lovely- delightful for beauty, harmony, or grace

Most of the verses I find have to deal with outward beauty, but a few speak of the Lord's beauty ie. How lovely is your dwelling place, O Lord, Almighty. Psalm 84:1

Admirable- deserving the highest esteem

Excellent- eminently good, superior

Praiseworthy- commendable

Writing these out makes me really think about what I am doing WRONG. I know that none of us are perfect, but there are so many opportunities to show Jesus to the world, that we need to be thinking in these terms rather than justifying/lying to ourselves why we are 'better' than the world and why our circumstances are different. (all excuses from finishing the tasks that He so richly blessed us with)
