Gratitude Statement

I am grateful for the Grace of Emotions (Gift of Right Thought), knowing that our thoughts, positive or negative, have the power to influence our reality and our destiny.

Inspirational Message

Of all Ten Graces, this one is the most important to master. This Grace tells us to manage our thoughts. And there are three very good reasons why this is vital to your Spiritual Growth.

First, all of your Speech and Behavior begin with your thoughts. You cannot generate Right Speech or practice Right Behavior if you do not first have Right Thoughts.

Second, as already noted, Thoughts either derive from the Mind or from the Soul.  When they derive from the Mind, they pass through several imperfect processes including Observation, Reasoning, and Rationalization. Mindful Speech can be discerned by its negative and counter-productive messages.

The Soul, however, yields Thoughts that come directly from God and are therefore always positive and productive. If you want to maintain Spiritual Equilibrium, then balance your Thoughts.

Third, the Law of Attraction is real. It is as binding and predictable and reliable as any other Absolute Law of Nature. The Law of Attraction states that our Thoughts beget our reality. What we think, positive or negative, sends corresponding vibrations out into the Universe and returns energies of like vibration. If you broadcast positive vibes, you draw positivity into your life. This is an immutable constant which you can think of this way: ‘the love you take is equal to the love you make.’

Know this! Our Thoughts are the most fundamental form of expression. It’s where we talk to ourselves. We do this all day long. Even in our sleep! Listen to your Thoughts. Manage them well. Your Spiritual Growth depends on it.
