Think, Speak and Act Only The Good

“Be not conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind.” Romans 12.2
Another translation: “Don't become like the people of this world. Instead, change the way you think. 
Then you will always be able to determine what God really wants-what is good, pleasing, and perfect.”

I have a mind, but I am not my mind.
I have thoughts, but I can change my thoughts.
When I change my thoughts, I change my experience.
When I think good thoughts, I have good experiences.

I can practice using my mind for Good.
I can choose to think Good thoughts.
I can forgive my using my mind for ill.
I can delete all thoughts that are not for the Good of all.

I prefer to be happy.
I prefer to be in love.
I prefer to be at peace.
Therefore, I change my mind quickly and easily when I experience unhappiness, fear or conflict.

Some tools I use to change my mind, easily and quickly.  They all will work!

You have Good because you are Good.
Do the Work and it will work for you.
