Bible Answer: Bonner: The mind cannot dwell on but one thing at a time. Thus, I would suggest that you copy Philippians 2:8 on several cards and place them in your car, your bathroom mirror, on the refrigerator, on your desk and, above all, write the words indelibly on your heart and allow them to sink deeply into your mind: "Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things." If you are a Christian, pray for deliverance from your obsession. If you are not a Christian, surrender your life to Christ, believe in Him, trust in Him, and confess Him as your Lord and Savior. --Hank |
