If we desire happiness we cannot walk around with a long face complaining, thinking and speaking negatively. When we engage in morbid reflection our thoughts work to convince us that sickness, trouble and failure are unavoidable. To be clear: We do not control the thoughts that float up into our consciousness; thought control is not about banning a thought which is impossible, but taking right action when we become aware. Negative thinking is cunning, a wolf masquerading as a lamb, so just as the shepherd tending their flock; as soon as we become aware of the wolf, spiritually corrosive negative reflection and thinking, we take action.
Our course is clear, remembering that prayer is always the answer we place our trust in God and stay out of the results business. God does not punish with one hand and love with the other; He is always working in the positive for His children, His promises, our spiritual inheritance, are at hand as long as we stand vigilant over the crops we tend in our consciousness, keeping our wolves at bay.
