DAILY DOSE OF EMMET FOX



QUARANTINE YOUR TROUBLES



When you are praying or "treating" about a particular thing, you should handle it, mentally, very carefully indeed. The ideal way is no to think about it at all except when you are actually praying about it. Moreover, to talk to other people about it is exceedingly likely to invite failure.

When a new problem presents itself to you, decline to consider it except in the light of Truth. I call this "Putting a subject in quarantine." Even an old long-standing problem can be "put in quarantine" today, if you mean business and will resolutely break the habit of constantly thinking over that problem. Whenever you think about any subject, you are treating it with your thought - either for good or for evil.

The lip of truth shall be established for ever... (Proverbs 12:19).
