All Relationships are a Mindset

Let us think about this. There are two covenants which bind relationships. One is between God and man. The other between husband and spouse. Marriage is a blessing because its our first opportunity on earth to be challenged outside our own desires, a chance to not be selfish.

For those who are not married be blessed in that state according to 1 Cor. 7-9 and Philippians 4:4-9.

We are told in Philippians to CHOSE to focus on all things

1. True
2. Honest
3. Just
4. Pure
5. Lovely
6. Good Report
7. Virtue
8. Praiseworthy

Every time we chose NOT to think on things that arent in these categories we are being disobedient and ultimately causing ourselves and our relationships harm. Diseases are known to be caused by wrong thinking. Does anyone want to come up with a Mnemonic device for remembering these 8 guidelines for a proper frame of mind?
