Our minds are constantly working for or against us and we must ... guide them into the channels of good ...
Everyone has a way of limiting the good in his or her life. We all seem to put limitations on our good fortune and what is the question? Why should our good be limited in any way? Why are we able only to see ourselves receiving limited good? Can we not condition ourselves into the expectation that everything is good and that we can and should only expect the good things of life. Yes, we can and we should, for all our expectations whether good or bad fulfill themselves. We do not realize that this is so, but it is indeed a truth of life.
We get what we expect and what we deserve and no one can keep it from us for long. It behooves us then to think well of ourselves for we are the creators of all that happens to us by the action of our minds. We have within us potent weapons of good or evil, and we must rightly use them and correctly expect only good will come to us by their use.
Our minds are constantly working for or against us and we must take the reins and guide them into the channels of good and constructive ways of life. This does not at all mean that without physical work you can by mind and thought alone achieve all good. The two must work together for the result that will bring to us our ultimate heaven on earth.
The peace and goodwill also of others towards us must come about both by our sincere desire to bring it about and our work in that direction; and so it is with all desires, no matter what they may be, we must expect them and then work for them in whatever manner or means is best for us to achieve this good.
Also we must be sure that what we so ardently desire is right for all and will in no way injure another for only in this way can we bring about our good and have right prevail. Expect, Work, and Have, are the trinity in this case that works for each one and all.
