What words, phrases, or images are surrounding you on a daily basis?
I've been thinking a lot about what I surround myself with or what I "consume" in my mind and heart. I am challenging myself to really focus on what goes in the "temple". I was already thinking about this concept and had the last straw last weekend when I voluntarily watch a movie in its entirety that I should have never even rented. Johnathon and I both felt the same way. We looked at each other and pulled one of these: "why didn't we just turn it off?"
We both knew it was crude within the first 10 minutes and I had to fast forward through about 1/3 of the movie...so again "why didn't we just turn it off?"
A kick in the butt is sometimes just what I need to pursue more godliness ;-)
So what words, phrases or images are surrounding me NOW?
Scriptures I read through out the day that I have taped on my computer:
"Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and you shall find; knock and it shall be opened to you." - Matthew 7:7
"Glory in His Holy Name; let the heart of those who seek the Lord be glad."
- Psalm 105:3
A quote I read today that is pressing on my mind:
"You will never leave where you are, until you decide where you'd rather be."
- Lewis Dunnington
Of course I must throw in my fortune cookie fortunes I have taped to my computer that I see everyday:
"Desire, like the atom, is explosive with creative force."
(what am I desiring today? is it righteous? is it selfish?)
"You are the master of every situation."
(this is by far the biggest joke. i think it is very funny that people actually believe we could be master of anything)
