GIVE IT TIME

GIVE IT TIME Around the Year with Emmet Fox December 11 People sometimes accept the idea that a change of thought, plus turning to God in prayer, will transform their lives into harmony and freedom. The logic of this principle appeals to them, and they set to work upon it in earnest. Then, after a few days, they say, “Nothing has happened after all,” and they drop back into their old negative thinking. That is extremely foolish. The results of many years of general negative thinking are seldom corrected in a few days. No one who goes upon a new physical diet or medical regimen expects to reap the advantages in so short a time. You must keep up the new way of thinking and refuse to be discouraged by seeming failures at first. The right motive for adopting right thinking is that it is right, and wrong thinking is wrong, and we should do right whether it seems to pay dividends – but it usually takes a little perseverance in the face of preliminary slowness. “And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.” Jeremiah 29:13
