Each day is a new battlefront in my mind. My default is to think negatively, in defeat. I often wonder what will go wrong today, what unsolved issue will flair up, or I’ll imagine a new episode of a distanced relationship. But the Philippians 4 reference has been a huge help in starting the day. Reminding myself to think and talk with what is good, honorable and truthful is a wise pattern to develop. I’m plagued less with defeat and feeling victimized, even though that is my default. May our Father be pleased with our progress in thinking patterns.
