Think On What Is True

I am reading the book "Loving God with All Your Mind" by Elizabeth George. (Thank you to my friend Sara for giving me this book for Christmas!) I'm only in the first chapter, but I can already tell that this is a nice complement to Take Shape for Life.

Excerpt from Chapter 1:
"'Whatsoever things are true...think on these things.' In just eight words--eight words!--out of the fathomless treasure of God's Word, I had my breakthrough. It came when I realized that God did not want me to spend my precious time and equally precious mental energy thinking on things that are not true or real. As I sought to apply this instruction and obey the command of Philippians 4:8, the darkness over my life began to lift and the light of God's Word flooded into my heart, soul...and mind!'

'Take it from me, blessing abound when you and I think on what is true and real. And one of those blessings is strength for daily life. Strength that includes energy, health and vitality!"
