Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Our actions follow our thoughts like a heat-seeking missile follows the exhaust of a jet fighter's engine. So, in a day when so much around us trains us to find the negative in life and in others, we must aggressively think and pursue the character, the qualities, and the things of God's goodness.

My Prayer...

Holy and Magnificent God, thank you for being better than anything my world can offer me. Thank you for calling me to a higher standard than the world accepts. Thank you for giving me the promise of a better future than any human can imagine. Thank you for giving me a high calling to live up to you. I now ask, dear Father, for the Holy Spirit to help imprint what is lovely and admirable, excellent and praiseworthy, in my character as I focus on them in my thoughts. In Jesus' holy name I pray. Amen.
