Learn to forgive and forget. You can’t even get through the Lord’s Prayer if you don’t. It is almost impossible to keep bad thoughts from com ing into the mind, but you don’t need’ to shelter and house them. Remember the old saying, “You can’t keep the sparrows from flying overhead, but you can keep them from building nests in your hair.” When thoughts come, push them out of the way with good thoughts. Be determined about it. There OFFICE SUPPLIES CHRONICLE PUB. CO. PHONE 833-0541 are always good things, to think about. Count your blessings. If you can’t do better, think about, some of the bad things you haven’t got; then be thankful. ' ' In His Sermon on the Mount, Jesus issued a solemn warning, “Agree with your adversary (unkind and un forgiving thoughts, bad acts) quickly while you are in the way with him. Lest the ad versary deliver thee to the judge and the judge deliver thee to the officer and thou be cast into prison (embit tered life, chains of habit) . .. Thou shalt by no means come out thence till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing. Bad thinking creates a poison in your system which destroys happiness, endangers health. Dr. Stanley Jones has a fine book on this subject, “Is the Kingdom of God Real ism.” in which he shows how resentment and hate produce disease, how anxieties and worry breed illness' how a Sense of guilt induces ill health. Self - centered people are unhappy people. If you want to enjoy happiftess, put God in the center of your life and put self out. God planned for you to be a member of the Divine Fam ily, but you have to accept membership by an act of j’9ur own will. When you ac cept God as your Father, '-QhrisWas' Vour Saviour, the Holy Spirit “as your guide, you are born anew into the Divine Family. This is what the Bible calls the new birth. Jesus said, “Except a man be born anew (from above) he cannot see the Kingdom 1 ’ of God,” while St. John wrote, “As many as received Him, to them gave He power to be come 1116 sons keep the eyes of your mind and heart on God, “The giver of every good and perfect gift.” Follow His leading, and you will walk the way of happiness, peace and con tentment.
