You can’t see them, weigh them, or measure them.But your thoughts loom large and heavy as the strongest influencers of your affections, emotions and will.In other words, the battlefield for the Christian life is the mind.It’s no wonder the Lord commands us to pay close attention to what we allow into our minds, and to deliberately focus our thoughts on what is right, true and good – by His measure.First century Philippians were tempted to be preoccupied with their anxieties, fears and disappointments, just like we are today.The Apostle Paul tenderly, but firmly, told them to train their minds toward God’s truth, and His promises.“… if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy – meditate on these things.” Philippians 4:8 (NKJV)
