I Place My Thoughts

       I place my thoughts upon heaven to where God and Jesus Christ dwell. I place my thoughts upon the light and love of God that shines down upon those to whom he loves. His light guides my way and his love brings warmth to my heart. I place my thoughts not upon the darkness but upon the hope that God gives. I choose to think about the goodness of God over that which brings me sadness. I will not let my mind to be a captive to darkness but to set it free by thinking life uplifting thoughts instead of life diminishing ones.
     I place my thoughts upon good memories and the joy that they bring. Whatever that lifts me up and makes me smile is where my thoughts are. Why take a dive into the depths of misery instead of resting upon a happy shore? Why are you drawn to despair instead of being drawn to what gives you hope? Do not let yourself be suffocated by this world but turn your mind towards heaven so to see God's salvation for us. The Kingdom of Jesus Christ is coming soon to take away all of our feelings of hopelessness and to wipe away our tears. I place my thoughts upon his kingdom and all the hope and happiness that it will bring.
     Even though I maybe surrounded by problems that are out of my control, I will still place my thoughts and prayers upon God for my deliverance. I will never surrender to the darkness but only to the will of God. I place my thoughts upon the words of God to seek my answers. There is a light that shines through the darkness and shows me the path to which to travel. The Holy Spirit of God lights my way. The illumination of God's Spirit is filled with his love and uplifts my soul and mind. I place my thoughts upon God for it is the only way I can truly live and survive.
