Fill Your Mind with Good Things

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

Do not fill your head with the garbage of the world! Access to everything has never been easier than today. With a click of the mouse or turn on the TV and you can enjoy wholesome entertainment and good things that can build you up. Or you can enjoy the filth of pornography, murder, perversion, and an endless array of depravity. Know that there are things that you cannot unsee.

Today’s entertainment and media venues provide a perfect platform for overtly sinful content. It also consistently delivers subtle, corrupt narratives and philosophies that poison the mind and deteriorate society. This is especially damaging to the impressionable minds of the young. The normalization and glorification of debauchery and depravity along with the vitriolic rejection of God are often clear objectives.

Be discerning in what you watch, read, and what you listen to. This stuff impacts what you think more than you know, and it will affect your walk with God. Dwell on good things and seek out quality people that build you up in the faith.

Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. Psalm 1:1-2
