Truth » Saints should » Meditate upon
Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think about these things.
Truth » Saints should » Esteem, as inestimable
Buy the truth, and don't sell it. Get wisdom, discipline, and understanding.
Truth » Saints should » Write, upon the tables of the heart
Don't let kindness and truth forsake you. Bind them around your neck. Write them on the tablet of your heart.
