What To Fill Your Minds With

Summing it all up, friends, I’d say you’ll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious—the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse. Put into practice what you learned from me, what you heard and saw and realized. Do that, and God, who makes everything work together, will work you into his most excellent harmonies.—Philippians 4:8-9

Love is born of an earnest consideration of the object loved—Thomas Aquinas

He Took Our Place

What I would have settled for You have blown so far away what you brought me to I thought I could not reach,–in the intentions of God we find that where we would have settled, He moves us far beyond.  Where we would have failed, He took our place.-Rich Mullins  

I thank you that you Lord, that you have answered me and have become my salvation.  Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!-Psalm 118:21, 26a
