And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts
on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable.
Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. - Philippians 4:8
A lie the world tells us is to
do things on our own without any help from God. But why exchange the truth of
God for this lie that leads to an unhealthy society? Instead, the prescription to a clearer vision is to
give attention to our spiritual growth. Think of ways to feed our hearts and
minds with positives from God.
Like the song Fix My Eyes by King & Country
points out, we can change our course. We can accept the help God gives in
Christ and accept the obvious as truth. The ways of the world always change but
the character of God never does.
As a society learns how to live
God’s way, individuals build up strong character, families support each other,
and communities flourish. The post “Changing
Course” provides an analysis from Paul about society’s issues, how to sort
things out, and offers a prescription to a clearer vision.
