In a world full of negativity, discouragement, and hate, Paul leaves us with a challenging message. We find this message in Philippians 4:8:
"Whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report: if there be any virtue, if there be any praise, think on these things."
The world can be full of negativity, but we can choose to see with God’s eyes and speak life. The world can be full of discouragement, but we can choose to act as the hands and feet of Jesus and exhibit kindness and compassion. The world can be full of hate, but we can choose to demonstrate love. But first, we have to change the way we think.
Choose to think of the things that are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, and good report, and watch what happens. Watch God use you to change the negativity into something positive.
This is the message we shared with every performance of the Zootopia play at this year's Hallow(themed) Party. You can watch the full play here: https://youtu.be/vwJP5hEgiAk?si=jCMHumDewolsKDfM
