When I have “free time” to think, on what do I choose to think?

About the only times I have for that are when I’m driving and when I’m lying down resting.

At those times I usually end up doing one of three things: praying, listening to talk radio, chewing over problem issues.

What does God think about?

“Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered” (Psalm 40:5).

God thinks about me!

Wow! I think that’s pretty neat. Sobering, too.

And a good reminder to train my mind to think about Him.

“I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me” (Psalm 39:1).

(And the rest of the time, too.)

Spoken foolishness comes so easily.

So does verbal sin.

I resolve to do better with my oral communication.
