It is important to keep our eyes and hearts focused on God’s Word. Besides being the Sword of the Spirit, it is also the ultimate source of truth and encouragement. We are bombarded daily with an onslaught of messages from the world; some harmless, some misleading, and some outright false and dangerous. In order to be steady in our Christian walk, we should reflect daily on the truth God has given us. Today on the Morning Thing we shared several truths of scripture that are good to remind ourselves of daily. Some of them are important to remember because they keep us encouraged and others are important because they guide our actions to be more Christ-like.

- You are fearfully and wonderfully made: “I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are your works, and my soul knows it very well.” (Psalm 139:14)
- Beauty is vain: “Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised.” (Proverbs 31:30)
- You are filled with God’s Spirit: “And do not get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit.” (Ephesians 5:18)
