Philippians 4:8-9

Enjoy the good, pray always, and know that He cares for you!

It is God’s good pleasure that you enjoy the world that He  has created for you. Remember to thank Him.

He loves us so!

What does God require of us? 

Micah 6:8

He has shown you, O man, what is good; 

And what does the Lord require of you 

But to do justly, 

To love mercy, 

And to walk humbly with your God?

James 3:17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.

God's desire is for all to be saved; to use the gifts imparted by the Holy Spirit; and to live with expectancy, looking for the blessed return of our Lord. When we live informed of the Truth, we live in tune with the giver of Truth ... and that is truly a gift. First5

A reporter interviewing a 104-year-old woman asked: "And what do you think is the best thing about being 104?"
She simply replied, "No peer pressure."
She nailed that one.
And it reminded me that worry and urgency are the peer pressures of my world.
If none of this helps, you can always make a list. Item one on the list: Today, I want to lose the list. SabbathMoments 

Philippians 4:8-9

8 Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things. 9 The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you. The New King James Version

The  term “noble” describes that which is of honorable character. “Pure” is closely associated with the Greek word for holy and thus means “sacred” or “immaculate.” 

Paul commands the Philippians “to deliberate,” “to evaluate,” “to compute over and over” what is good and pure. In this way, Christians can renew their minds so that they will not conform to the evil habits of this world.

The  verb “learned” conveys not only the concept of “increasing in intellectual knowledge” but also the idea of “learning by habitual practice.” In some areas of their Christian development the Philippians had been excellent disciples of Paul, practicing what he had taught. The NKJV Study Bible

Joy in God is of great consequence in the Christian life; and Christians need to be again and again called to it. It more than outweighs all causes for sorrow. Let their enemies perceive how moderate they were as to outward things, and how composedly they suffered loss and hardships. Matthew Henry’s Concise Commentary

Romans 15:33 Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
