Filtering out the negative, Focusing on the positive

"Whatever things are true, noble, just, pure, lovely, and of good report… 

Meditate on these things."
- Philippians 4:8

We are bombarded with social media and outside messages throughout our days. We must create a filtering system in our awareness that allows the negative to pass by and focus on the positive and valuable.

I believe the above Bible verse may be a six-layer system for filtering out the negative.

In meditation and prayer simply focus on:

Is it true?

Is it noble?

Is it just?

Is it pure?

Is it loving?

And is it of good report?

If the answer is no, let it pass. If the answer is yes, allow it into your life.

Your mind, body, and soul are strengthened by focusing on the positive.
