Think on these things!
In Phillipians 4:8 Paul says,
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.
Thoughts:
I completed a word dig to determine the meanings of each one of these words.

Noble- virtuous, having high moral principles
Right - just, fair, equitable, morally good
Pure - free from harshness, clean, spotless
Lovely - exquisitely beautiful, delightful, pleasant
Admirable - deserving respect, reverent, worthy
Praiseworthy - commendable, honorable, excellent
Feelings:
True thoughts = pensive and content
Noble thoughts = respected and appreciated
Right thoughts = satisfied and worthwhile
Pure thoughts = nurturing, thankful, and love
Lovely= relaxed, content, aware, and delightful
Admirable = satisfied and valuable
Praiseworthy = hopeful, joy, love, peace, creative, and energetic
Actions:
When we experience any of the above feelings it propels us to move forward, dream, and create. Do not stay stuck if you are in a negative thought cycle. Today is the day for you to wake up and begin again!
