In Paul's epistle to the Philippians brethren, he counseled on what should constantly form their thoughts. He said:
"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." - Philippians 4:8.
The apostle Paul outlines what is supposed to be the thought of our hearts. Since this fall of man, the Bible repeatedly makes us to know that the heart of man is evil but God has made a way for man's heart to be purged.
You, alone, can change this by the decisions you make today. It's a matter of choice. The choice to choose Christ Jesus and have your heart purged and purified by God or choose to live the way you have always been. The Bible says: "But Christ came as High Priest of the good things to come, with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is, not of this creation. Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He entered the Most Holy Place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption." -Hebrews 9:11-12
You might say even the people that you know are in Christ are not different by things they do. It is an individual race. You need to make a difference by the letting God cleanse of your heart. God wants you to be different.
"To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ." - 1 Peter 2:4-5
You're unique, beautifully created and chosen for divine blessings of God. But it's all starting with you recognizing that your thoughts can be changed from evil to good today.
God bless you!
