Thoughts into life
+++++++++++++++++++
The person that you are acts steadily and powerfully in accordance with your most genuine thoughts. When you think it, there is a part of you that immediately begins to make it real.
You are the willing and dedicated servant of your thoughts.
The thoughts you hold most often and most prominently set the agenda for the reality of your life.
As each day goes by, you draw from life what you think into it. In the large efforts and in the small moments, your thoughts point in a direction that your life dutifully follows.
When you truly convince yourself that something must be done, it gets done. Similarly, when you decide that something is impossible for you, it’s not going to happen.
Thoughts control and direct the miraculous, dynamic energy that is your life. And in each moment, in each situation, in response to each challenge, you can choose the thoughts that serve you best.
It is an awesome and powerful choice you have when you select which thoughts to think. And from that choice reliably, relentlessly, flows the experience of your life.
Ralph Marston
Quick Thought:
“Brethren, if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone turns him back, let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins.” James 5:19-20 (NKJ)
Mark 14:43-52
“And immediately while He (Jesus) was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, came up, accompanied by a multitude with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders. Now he who was betraying Him had given them a signal, saying, “Whomever I shall kiss, He is the one; seize Him, and lead Him away under guard.” And after coming, he immediately went to Him, saying, “Rabbi!” and kissed Him.”
“And they laid hands on Him (on Jesus), and seized Him. But a certain one of those who stood by drew his sword, and struck the slave of the high priest, and cut off his ear.”
“And Jesus answered and said to them, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me, as against a robber? Every day I was with you in the temple teaching, and you did not seize Me; but this has happened that the Scriptures might be fulfilled.”
“And they all left Him and fled. And a certain young man was following Him, wearing a linen sheet over his naked body; and they seized him. But he left the linen sheet behind, and escaped naked.” Mark 14:43- 52 (NAS)
John 10:1-6
“Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbs up some other way, he is a thief and a robber.”
“But he who enters by the door is a shepherd of the sheep. To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out. When he puts forth all his own, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice.”
“And a stranger they simply will not follow, but will flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers.”
“This figure of speech Jesus spoke to them, but they did not understand what those things were which He had been saying to them.” John 10:1-6 (NAS)
