Plant Good Thoughts

…Whatever is lovely…think about such things.  Philippians 4:8

Props: planter, soil, seeds

            Have you ever thought about where plants come from?  We know that plants come from seeds.  It’s amazing that something so big could start out so small, but that’s the way God designed it.  Even the tallest trees begin as tiny seeds.  Seeds also always become what they start out to be.  An orange seed becomes an orange tree and an apple seed becomes an apple tree.  You get what you plant.

            Our thoughts are like seeds, as well.  Thoughts grow up to become words and actions.  The things that you say begin as thoughts in your minds.  Everything you do also begins as a thought in your mind.  You get what you plant.  If you plant nice thoughts, nice words will come out of your mouth.  If you plant nice thoughts, you will do nice things. 

            Fill your mind with better things.  Let your thoughts be better and then your words and actions will be better as well.
