Devotional Thoughts As Man Thinketh The familiar proverb, “As a man thinketh in his heart so is he”, (Prov. 23:7) reveals the nature of mankind and provides him with an ideal. Probably the most distinctive thing about man is what he thinks and what happens as a conse quence. Life is made up of thoughts and actions. From a negative and destructive angle, the communists have ably demon strated this principle. They have operated on the basis of “chang ing the thinking” of people and you can change the structure of civilization. This accounts in part for their tortuous method of “brain-washing”. How much valid is this proverb from a positive Christian view point! Jesus knew also that if people’s minds could be directed toward God and they would act on those thoughts life could be different. Thus, he constantly challenged them to think great thoughts—about God, about them selves, about their neighbors and about their high destiny. He urged his people to love God with “all the mind”. He knew that if men thought rightly about God and man a new day would soon dawn. Can modern Christians do less today? We need to examine more thoroughly the great ideas of the Christian faith and em brace them in life and deed. Thp Apostle Paul speaks to us in this hour, “Now, brothers, let your minds dwell on what is true, what is worthy, what is pure, what is amiable, what is kindly — on everything that is excellent or praiseworthy”. (Phillipians 4:8). Cecil A. Jarman, Pastor First Christian Church Wilson, North Carolina Weddings Mrs. Charles E.
