The more you
Think, do, and speak
Things that are bad
(Even if you sneak)
The harder it is
To be glad.
Make your thoughts
Gladwrap for your mind;
Your words and deeds
Gladwrap for sad people
Make yourself glad again. Remember what you’re grateful for! Take the time to make choices that you’ll be glad to remember!
Think, speak, and do what makes you glad, not just in the moment, but also makes you look back from tomorrow and the future with gladness.
Unregulated thoughts, feelings, and desires disrupt the human psyche and hinder much gladness. Make inner peace the blueprint for your life. If something doesn’t align with the blueprint, don’t think, speak, or do it!
Self-focus is self-imprisonment. Self-forgetfulness is freedom from self-torment.
Through thick and thin,
No matter the condition I’m in,
The risen Jesus makes me glad
To be alive.
