A FEW WORDS, Continued: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11

Whatever your present life is, you can be sure that it is the result of the way you think. If you are having many challenges, then look to your way of thinking. Do you see good in everything, or do you see lack and undesireable things in everything? If you are doing half of each, then your life could well be a kind of confusion.

We have been taught by the Master Teacher Jesus that we should keep our eye single. This means that we should always, not just sometimes, but always see good in all experiences and in every person.

Pollyannaish, you might say? Perhaps. But, friend, keeping your eye centered on good brings results that are most desireable and worthwhile...

No matter what happens, start right now to name it good. Play the game of taking control and looking your situation squarely in the face and saying: "You are good. You have come to me for my good. I shall use you for good."

---Amalie H. Frank, from "Amalie's Good Words: Signposts for the Journey"
