What is on your mind?


Psa 115:12 The LORD hath been mindful of us: he will bless us; he will bless the house of Israel;

Think about what we think about. Our world is so busy and our thoughts are so scattered at times that focusing on something important can be like nailing Jello to a wall. I would like to center my thoughts on the Lord for an extended period of time, but other things scream for my attention; the day's agenda, a pressing need, a worry, a person in need, a pain I am having or a money problem.

These and other thoughts speed through our minds causing needful thoughts to dive for the tall grass on the side of the road.

Paul said, " Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things."
Phil 4:8

Now let's turn our thoughts to the God Who not only created, but sustains the universe. As if He had little else to do, God is mindful of us!!! We are in His thoughts and on His mind, not now and then but consistently. He knows our thoughts, He sees our plight, He plans our future and he directs our path. What glory and wonder the Mind of the Divine!

Perhaps today I will think more about the One Who constantly considers me.
