Sit down quietly where you are not likely to be disturbed. Relax the body, and begin to think about yourself. Every time your thoughts wanders to something higher, bring it back gently but relentlessly.
Think about the past. Think over all the mistakes you have made, going right back to childhood. Think over all the opportunities you have missed and the time you have wasted. Especially think of all the occasions upon which you have been badly treated.
Think about your body and wonder if your age or your job or the climate isn’t beginning to tell. See if you cannot discover a pain or an ache somewhere.
Think about finances and if they are going well now, insist that this is probably too good to last.
In any case, think about yourself, that is the main point, and if you will keep this up faithfully for fifteen or twenty minutes, there can be no doubt about the result.
Seest a man wise in his own conceit? There is more hope for a fool than him (Proverbs 26:12)
For, these next few days the messages will tell us how to succumb to negativity. This is not pleasant to hear, but they make the point. We all will find some of our thoughts, words and deeds addressed in these messages. This should serve as a wake up call to all of us that we have work to do if we are to overcome negativity.
As we search our souls and face our failures, may God strengthen us to stay firm in our resolve to free ourselves from the yoke of negativity. Each failure we face will become a victory and will lead us toward the garden God created for us.
Digging deep,
Z gardener
