A.W. Tozer emphasizes the profound connection between our thoughts and will, illustrating that while our thoughts influence our choices, our will can also direct our thoughts towards holiness. He references Philippians 4:8 to highlight the command to focus on virtuous and praiseworthy things, suggesting that we have the power to choose our meditations, which ultimately shapes our inner lives towards righteousness. Tozer argues that prioritizing godly thoughts and a commitment to God's will is more crucial than fluctuating spiritual feelings. He encourages believers to actively set their affections on heavenly matters, assuring that God will guide their paths. The true measure of a faithful person is one whose heart is steadfastly trusting in the Lord.
