"I keep the telephone of mind open to peace, harmony, health, love and abundance. Then whenever doubt, anxiety, or fear try to call me, they will keep getting a busy signal and soon they'll forget my number." -Edith Armstrong
I have cleared from my mind negative thoughts and images. How? By watching what I put before my eyes and what I allow my ears to hear. To stay totally positive and have an attitude that radiates positive thoughts, we have to keep our mind full of Philippians 4:8..
"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 are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
We can not underestimate the influence our thoughts have on our lives. What we allow to occupy our mind will eventually influence our speech and actions. Paul speaking in Philippians was exhorting us to "think on these things" but then followed it up with the next verse (v.9) "Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you."
When you add up all those virtues from both verses you can't help but produce a wholesome thought pattern , which in turn will result in a life of moral and spiritual excellence.
