"We have received . . . the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God." 1 Corinthians 2:12
When I am able to let go of a painful experience and the aftermath of the negative feelings it produces, I am able to hold on to the one and only reality which matters. That reality is that I am God’s child and He loves me unconditionally. Sometimes my human resentment and bitterness wants to hold on to a hurt, a resentment or an anger, but because I am convinced of and committed to the reality of the Holy Spirit , I am able to allow “right thinking” to take the place of “stinking thinking”. Instead of allowing a negative experience to control me, with my free will I request and allow the will of God to intervene and to flood my entire being. Unfailingly, the negativism miraculously drains away and once again I am able to rejoice in the reality of Romans 8:28, that “All things work together for good for those who love God and are called according to His purpose.”

There are negative things going on in my personal life, in my community, and in the world at large. My choice is to view these realities through the eyes of God and the mind of Christ. He knows far better than I how I can make a difference. It is that inspiration for which I pray.
