Gather Your Thoughts

December 29
As a year ends, it is customary to think back over that year of your life and reflect on what it held.  At times, there are years we are glad to see be gone and we hold on to hope that the new year will produce more hope, less hurt and good health.
Paul suggests this...

Rather, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, 

and do not think about how to gratify the desires of the flesh.

Romans 13:14

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.

Philippians 4:8

As we gather our reflective thoughts for 2014, why not consider making a list of the presence of the Lord in our lives during those days?  If He didn't show up often, think about inviting him into more activities in 2015.
