I am commanded to live out Christian virtues

You have to direct your thoughts. “Why so downcast my soul?”

“Whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, whatever is excellent or praiseworthy think about these things.”

Challenges rise out of wrong thinking – self, sins, anger, overvaluing good things

Prayer & thanksgiving

Truth:

Thinking must be rooted in the Word of God. Expose yourself

Thinking about others must be characterized by truth. No assumptions

Thinking about my circumstances & future must be characterized by truth & not by fear & anxiety.

Honorable: noble & dignity

Just: fulfilling obligations, doing the right thing, conforming to Jesus, not convenience

Pure: Morally, ethically, words & actions. Also includes sincierty & motives

Lovely: True & genuine beauty

Commendable: admirable

Excellent or praiseworthy: summary statement

Follow the instructions. Daily discipline & repetition

Whenever you feel like you are about to sin, start praying! Praying has helped me so much. Also keeping a Prayer Journal helps too! Also praying for everyone that God made helps too! It helps remind us that we are not alone in our struggle with sin. :):):):):hug::hug::hug::hug:

Reading The Bible and listening to Christian music also help when you feel you are about to sin. I pray everyone God made stops sinning and loves each other the way Jesus taught. :):):):)

You have me wondering about this sin of yours. I'm glad you've found a way to overcome it. :)
