Whatever…
Part 3
Philippians 4:8 NIV
8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.
Purity helps us notice what doesn’t belong.
Cynics always find something ugly; worshippers always find something beautiful.
Philippians 4:8 NIV
8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.
Celebrate what’s commendable.
Excellence honors God and inspires people.
Complaining comes naturally; praising takes practice.
Next Steps
- I will accept Jesus as my Lord and Savior.
- I will filter what I allow into my heart and mind.
- I will intentionally look for the admirable and praiseworthy this week.
- I will memorize Philippians 4:8.
