Healing Through Good Thoughts
Healing Through Good Thoughts
So often when you lose someone you love, your thoughts go to their suffering, their pain, how they died, how they may have suffered. When my daughter was raped and murdered, I already had an idea of what might have happened as I had gone to the trial of the murderer’s first victim. I could have played what may have happened over and over in my mind, but I refused. Instead, every time one of those thoughts entered my mind, I chose to recite this scripture,
“Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue, and if there is anything praiseworthy----meditate on these things. The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you” Philippians 4:8,9. NKJV
You won’t help yourself or make your loved one feel you love them more by reliving that pain. You will only give the murderer more power because now they are slowly destroying you as well. Can anything good come from reliving what may have happened? Even if you think you know, you don’t. You don’t know when they took their last breath. You don’t know when their angels took them home. Don’t let your imagination run wild. Whatsoever things are pure and lovely, think on these, and the God of peace will be with you.
When you make a habit of thinking a negative thought, it eventually goes from your conscious mind into your subconscious mind. Once the thought is in your subconscious mind, it becomes habit. Likewise, when you think positive, good thoughts, they too will be the thoughts that become natural. 97% of what we do and think is habitual and comes from our subconscious mind. Resist the temptation to put negative thoughts in your subconscious mind, instead feed your mind good thoughts, and you will have peace and healing.
