An Attitude of Appreciation
[expand title="Read the article..."]The Mississippi Kite bathing in the gutter while I had breakfast on the front porch.
We talk about the attitude of gratitude in New Thought circles, but this morning, I want to focus on a different response, the attitude of appreciation.
The current social and health situations that have redefined our lifestyles weight heavily on everyone, and it seems that although the circumstances may alter, we are still months away from satisfactory solutions.
Divine Scientists know that one’s frame of mind is critically demonstrated in one’s experiences. So it behooves us to seriously and confidently reorder our thinking in positive and productive ways.
Job, in chapter 3, verse 25 of the Hebrew Scriptures, tells us “What I fear comes upon me, and what I dread befalls me”. So we know our current dilemma is ages old. It is a Law of Nature. One which with focus and determination, we can re-adjust our thinking and alter our experience.
“Garbage in, Garbage out” is a contemporary analysis used to express the idea that in computing and other spheres, incorrect or poor quality input will always produce faulty output.
Nona Brooks in chapter 6 of Short Lessons in Divine Science, a text I use in the Fundamentals of Divine Science class, tells us “Why we should be watchful of our Thinking”. She emphases, “We, Divine Scientists, lay great stress on right thinking, because from our thinking come results in our words, and deeds, and in our lives.”
She reminds us that “To change our environment or our outer conditions we do not have to work directly with them, but with our own thinking about them.
