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. Keep putting into practice all you learned and received from me—everything you heard from me and saw me doing. Then the God of peace will be with you. – Philippians 4:8-9
So I’ve decided it’s time to start a series on this “one final thing”. Because let’s face it… these things we’re supposed to fix our thoughts on… well honestly, when I read the list my most prevalent thought is, “Pppffffftttt!!!!!”
This chronic illness thing, it can color everything we see and make it SO hard to even find true and lovely things. It can color me… jaded.
I hope you’ll enjoy the coming series as we dig deeper into these worthy things through the lens of pain, chronic illness and disability. I hope you’ll pray that God will give me the insights to write. This is gonna be awesome. Thanks for being on this journey with me. <3
And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful. – Colossians 3:15
Glorious King, Be with us as we wade into this week. Help us to fix our thoughts on You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen…

Oh I love this! The Lord has been speaking to me lately about how we are to wield Peace as a weapon… the enemy can not function in an environment of peace! I love that!

Very much looking forward to the new series 🙂
While this verse is so familiar we can skim over it, focusing our mind on the right things is life changing!
