Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
— St. Matthew 5:16
King James Version of the Bible
“Providential Guideposts”
Change of Attitude … p. 51
The Mind, left to its own devices, tends to create wasteful thought. Such thought diminishes our ability to function at our God-given best. It thus becomes clear that we have a moral obligation to dismiss such destructive thought from the mind.
This may require a change of attitude; one that enables us to always look for the good in others. This in itself, while spiritually uplifting, serves as well to focus our thoughts on others’ attributes.
In all humility, we learn to listen, while withholding judgment. Our trust in others is made manifest, only to find that we too are similarly blessed.
We take pleasure in honouring others’ unique qualities, all the while knowing that, just as we are, is enough.
