Whatsoever


 
Sometime when
 I
get caught up in the cares of the world
God
reminds me
to
think on whatsoever
is
lovely.
 




Thank you God for loving me so much.

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
Philippians 4:8

    This is a favorite Scripture of mine and I prefer the translation you give here which uses the word "whatsoever", it is very poetic and oh, so true.

    Oh, Dottie... I really needed to hear this. Thanks so much for the reminder.

    Is that your porch? It's absolutely beautiful and such a gorgeous place to sit and reflect. It's ethereal, even. Love it.

    XO,

    I was just thinking of that scripture one day this week. I felt upset after watching the nightly news and thought of this scripture. I'm going to write it down in my journal tonight! Enjoy your weekend!
