"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."
Have you ever wondered where the "Power of Positive Thinking", had its origin? The One Truth Today has the answer. If understood, this scripture can change your life. Your mind can only hold one thought at a time. You are in complete control of that one thought. You keep out what you want and you allow into your mind what you want. Because you control your thoughts you also control your mind. These statements are true and reliable and that is why you are responsible for what you think, say and believe! As a man thinks in his heart, so is he. I THINK, THEREFORE I AM! There is a saying in the computer world, garbage in, garbage out. What do you feed into your computer like mind? This Word has the right answer!
Many people allow false, dishonorable, wrong and impure thoughts to dominate their lives. They tend to seek the ugly, debased and impure side of life on a regular basis and then wonder why they end up the same way. What they do is not excellent and it is not worthy of praise. In short they dwell on the negative side of life in their mind, heart and actions. They think impure thoughts and their life is representative of what they think. I THINK, THEREFORE I AM! Do you know someone like that? Do you want to be like them or with them? They can tell you what is wrong with everything and everyone. They just do not know how to make things right!
Fix your thoughts on the truth, not lies. Remain true to yourself and the Lord and do not be false. Keep your honor and do the right, pure and admirable things in your thoughts and in your deeds. Surround yourself with what is lovely, and excellent and worthy of praise. Avoid the negative and ugly side of man's nature. Stay away from perversion and pornography and the ugly side of life. Spend your time with friends that are virtuous and reverential and that share the Lord's Word and His values. Keep your mind fixed on the things of God and His Word! The equation is quite a simple one in the end. I THINK, THEREFORE, I AM!
