Emmet Fox - Give It the Right Thought #essentialsofrec #Emmet #Fox

There are a number of phrases used more or less commonly in metaphysics, sometimes without fully realizing their true import.
Such a phrase is give it the right thought.
Now this expression is useful in handling a difficulty if we really understand what it means. It does not mean that having said, "I will give it the right thought," the matter is done with and nothing further is required. That is only "Pollyanna" or wishful thinking.
But we give a thing the right thought when we can say, "Thy Will be done," knowing that God's Will is always something good and glorious. We give a thing the right thought when we cast the burden on the Christ within. We give a thing the right thought when we pray about it, believing that God hears and answers prayer. We give a thing the right thought when we maintain a positive and affirmative attitude.
When we do these things we are relying on God instead of ourselves.
As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.
