    The NSF estimates that a human brain produces as many as 12,000 to 50,000 thoughts per day, depending on how deep a thinker a person is. Most of the so-called random daily thoughts are about our social environment and ourselves. - Provided by RandomHistory.com

    There are also those who don’t think at all. These are the ones we have to forgive every day because “. . . they do not know what they are doing.”

    The “NSF” is an acronym (a set of initials representing a name, organization, or the like, with each letter pronounced separately). In the case above, it is likely for the National Science Foundation. But it could also be for: Non-Standard Facilities, National Sleep Foundation, National Strike Force, or any other of the 229 NSF's available.

    Most of all, “Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are of serious concern, whatever things are righteous, whatever things are chaste, whatever things are lovable, whatever things are well-spoken-of, whatever things are virtuous, and whatever things are praiseworthy, continue considering these things. The things that you learned as well as accepted and heard and saw in connection with me, practice these, and the God of peace will be with you.” (Php 4:8-9 NWT)

    The Greek word used by Paul, which is translated here as “considering”, is logizomai (log-id'-zom-ahee), having the meaning of; take into account, reckon, count over, to consider, take into account, weigh, meditate on. The word translated as practice is, prasso (pras'-so), having the meaning of; exercise, to commit, accomplish, perform, carry on.

    So, with the help of God and Son, make sure we have more than 50,000 good thoughts in a day.
