"In conclusion (or: Finally; or: What [is] left), brothers (= fellow believers; [my] family), as much as is true (or: as many things as are genuine and real), as many as [are] awe-inspiring (serious; respectable; noble; dignified by holiness), as much as [is] rightwised (put right; fair, equitable; just; in right relationship within the Way pointed out), as many as [are] pure and innocent, as much as [is] affection-inducing (friendly; directed toward what is liked; lovable or lovely; agreeable; well-regarded; winsome; engendering fondness; attractive; kindly disposed; loveable), as many as [are] well-spoken-of (commendable; reputable; of good report; the effect of fair speaking; renowned), if [there is] any excellence and nobleness (virtues of braveness, courage, good character, quality, self-restraint, magnificence, benevolence, reliability) [in them] and if [there is] any praise applied (expression of high evaluation; honor paid; approval or applause) [to them], be habitually thinking about these things in a logical way (repeatedly make these things the focus of careful consideration and analysis; continuously take these things into account)!"
(Philippians 4:8 - JMNT)
You get what you think about, whether you want it or not...when you allow yourself to be motivated by a negative emotion that exists within your heart or mind, especially one that gets translated into a thought and then manifested into a word, you are in that very moment "mis-creating"...your very own vibrational energy is working against you...
But when you intend, want and expect to see that which you really want to see, and allow yourself to feel good about it, then your emotion becomes positive, and you can know that you are in harmony with your real inner intentions...
Those who are experienced in the Law(s) of Attraction repeatedly say that there is great value in being happy, because only from the point of being happy can you attract that which you want...but in the larger sense, happiness is not just about getting what you want, it's about being who are...happiness is your most natural state of being...it's how you were created to be...if you are not allowing yourself to be happy, you are holding yourself back from authenticity and inner truth...David said to God, "You desire truth in the inward parts"...not only does God desire it, we all desire it...
I know the hit song 'Happy' has been overplayed, but I still love it and listen to it every time it comes on the radio...and it still works for me...I especially love the line that says, "Clap along if you feel that happiness is the truth!"...
Yes!
That's it!
Happiness is the TRUTH!
I know that depression is real, and is something that a lot of people have to deal with, as I've already said in previous posts...and I know that there is a lot in the world to be unhappy about, especially if you choose to see the glass half empty...but I still insist that happiness is the natural state, and one that we all should be walking in...Jesus said, "I came to give you life, and that more abundantly"...there is no abundant life without happiness...
The majority of your negative emotions could be eliminated if when you are alone with your own thoughts you would focus upon what you NOW want to think about...God is in the now...you were created to live in the presence of God...in the present moment...we are more powerful than we believe...we are the creators of our worlds...God spoke His worlds into existence, and we speak our world into existence...He "holds all things together by the word of His power", and we hold all things together in our world by the word of our power...we are the only ones in charge of the thoughts we allow into our minds...we are not powerless over them, and can choose to take the power back when it seems that we are out of control...we can choose to be the conscious creators of our own vision of our most beautiful, abundant, and happy life...
Our thoughts, words and actions are all constantly activating the Law(s) of Attraction and bringing more of what we are focusing on into our experiences...again, Jesus said, "To them that have will MORE be given"...when we feel, do or speak about anything with emotion, our vibration connected to that concept is even stronger and our desires will possibly/probably manifest quicker, so it’s worth being positive and happy and thinking good thoughts and feeling good about thinking them...
When we feel good, and think good thoughts, we are in harmony with what is true in our spirit, and we are heading in the direction that we really desire for our lives...
Listen to your instincts and trust your gut feelings, especially when it comes to making important decisions...follow your bliss...always lean towards happiness and joy...if it doesn't give you inner peace, DON'T DO IT!
Paul said that the Kingdom of God is RIGHTEOUSNESS, PEACE, AND JOY IN THE HOLY SPIRIT...move away from anything that brings you down if you can (as soon as you can)...
Be aware of outdated beliefs that no longer serve you and "forget those things which are behind"... you can rewire the mechanism of your brain with positive thoughts and desires, even if gradually, and every mental step in the right direction is a positive and productive one...you can create new beliefs and have new and better expectations for your life that are aligned with what you really, really want...
Yes, indeed...
Happiness is the TRUTH!
Everything else is a lie...
You will KNOW THE TRUTH and the TRUTH will MAKE YOUR FREE!

ReplyDeleteThis is so true about positive and negative words. I just spoke to Rene Babcock on Friday and she talked to me about speaking positive words everyday about healing and not letting negative thoughts become part of my words. It is such a good feeling when people who care about you are on the same page. Love.
