Whatsoever....


Philippians 4:8
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
1 Peter 3:8
Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:

Imagine your personal world, the world right around you, the one that includes your co-workser, your family, your firends, the difficult people we run into from time to time...imagine your life is we just kept our words, and our thoughts on the things that are pure in heart, full of compassion, full of good report, and if we had sympathy, helpfulness and kindess in each thought and action we took.  If we failed to talk negetivly even about the negetive people that walk beside us, even if only for a short time, what would our lives look like.  What would be on our hearts as we drift off to sleep each night ?  Peace. 
I strive for this and fail more often than I should, more often then I desire.    God grant us all the strength to be filled with love and compassion, in thought and in deed and certainly in our words.
