Freedom comes by choice. You can choose whom you obey. We are set free from our worldly master, sin, when we obey the Lord. Therefore, we can no longer be in subjection to our old master. (Romans 6:17; 1-2) Although we are slaves there is a payday coming. There is a reward for your service in everything we do. We just may not like it. We are rewarded in serving sin with eternal death. We are rewarded in serving God with eternal life in heaven. What is your reward? (Romans 6:23) What will you choose?
Think on what is lovely. Let God direct your mind to what is truly lovely in this world. At the very least that tree, flower, and blade of grass that He made and you saw today is lovely. Let Him influence your thoughts every day until you think on what God considers lovely. Then dwell on those things. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom. (Col. 3:16) There will be an overflow of lovely thoughts pour from your mind. Think about how encouraging to others that would be. Think lovely thoughts.
