Good Morning Garden

It is your duty to God to run your life on intelligent lines. God gives us all as much intelligence as we can possibly need, but, unfortunately, in most cases we use very little of it.

Ask yourself today if you are really conducting your life intelligently. Are you eating and drinking intelligently? Do you select your reading intelligently? Do you spend your money intelligently? Do you consider intelligently the things that you hear, or do you just accept them uncritically? Do you exercise intelligence in carrying out your daily work? Do you seek to approach each new problem with intelligence instead or mere emotions?

Have you intelligent plans for the future? Do you know what you would really like to do or to be, and if not wouldn’t it be only intelligent to go to work and find out and then draw up an intelligent plan for gaining your desire?

The world needs more intelligence. There is plenty of will, but because people will not use enough intelligence, mankind everywhere is in difficulties. Your intelligence is the light of God in your soul.

Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus (Philippians 2:5)

Just think. If we do that we are probably ahead of most people. People just don’t think intelligently enough and some don’t think at all. They “just do it”. For instance, if we thought about anger and all the negative things that flow from it, we would probably be angry less. If we think instead about God’s instruction that we love our neighbor as ourselves, we would certainly be more likely to forgive those who anger us. This would enable us to turn or anger into something positive. Just think! The possibilities for positive change are endless.
