Miracles Of Recovery
Being merciful toward others is always laudable, but what of the
mercy we fail to show ourselves? Do you mentally (or worse, out loud) chastise
yourself when a mistake is made or when some negative or objectionable thought
floats through your mind? Since we all make mistakes and curious thoughts float up in
everyone’s consciousness, we must put away the mental cat of nine tails and
demonstrate mercy in our own house (consciousness). God, Our Father, wants all
His children to be: happy, joyous and free. So we must stop berating ourselves and
thank God that by knowing Him better we can learn from our mistakes and when
those curious negative thoughts seem to appear from nowhere we can turn to Him
in prayer, ask if there is anything to be learned (sometimes there is, but not
always, often a cloudy day is just a cloudy day) and move on. Under no pretense
do we engage in a hunt for the cause of the thought, attempting to root out
it’s location in the psyche. To do so only opens us to the deadly trap of
morbid reflection and there be
dragons. If there is something to be known or learned, God will make it
abundantly clear, so ask Him; but don’t go looking for dragons, they bite.
