Some homeboy sits across the table from his wife, his eyes fixed, staring off into space. In a sweet voice his wife wants to know what it is that is bothering him. What would cause him to sit in this lovely restaurant and, while waiting on their food, be so distracted as to not enter into a deep, relationship-enriching conversation? If she could see in the depths of his mind, what would she see?
Well, little does she know, that at this particular moment he is just staring off to space. If the thinking mind is a work of art, his brain, at the time, is a blank canvas.
There are times when we are not thinking about anything (or is that just me?). Just sitting. However, when we are thinking, lets think about the right things. Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.- Philippians 4.8 (www.lifejournal.cc) Ponder on those matters today...
