Meditaitons

Ps 19:14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. (KJV)

This scripture has been a challenge to me for months now, because everything we say and do begins with our thoughts. The things we ponder, the things we muse about as we go through our days eventually shape the ways of our lives. Jesus said in, Lu 6:45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh. (KJV)

God has His thoughts toward us and our lives; Jer 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. (KJV)

The question is do our thoughts about ourselves and others align with His. Pleasing thoughts produce pleasing actions and pleasing actions bring the statement we all want to hear in the end. "Well done thou good and faithful servant enter in to the joy of your Lord".
