Who in their right mind?

Thanks be to the Lord, who daily carries our burdens for us. 
God is our salvation. 
Selah 

Psalm 68: 19 (GW)

So, if I'm tired and heavy-burdened, is it because I choose to be?
Why would anyone, in their right mind, choose to be burdened? Am I in my "right" mind? I guess I'd have to explore Philippians 4:8 and line up my thoughts with those Paul recommends.

Finally, brothers and sisters, keep your thoughts on whatever is right or deserves praise:

things that are true, honorable, fair, pure, acceptable, or commendable.

Today, I challenge myself and any other person reading these words to think on those things above and see if we feel a little lighter. I won't make excuses about what I HAVE to think about...if it doesn't pass the Philippians 4:8 test, I won't think about it.
Make a check list if you need to.

Right/Deserves praise?
True?
Honorable?
Fair?
Pure?
Acceptable?
Commendable?

Align your thoughts, let the fruitless go, and receive the peace of God that goes beyond ALL understanding. That is burden-free living!
