Thought Adjuster: “Your brain is a highly sophisticated data processor.  It is connected, consciously or unconsciously, to various informational feeds that contribute to your self-image and influence the opinions you form.

I caution you to exercise your discernment skills to assess the quality of its input.  Negative self-talk reflects low self-esteem and deters you from activating your potentials for greatness in Godlikeness.

“If the faith of the Most High has entered your heart, then shall you abide free from fear throughout all the days of your life.  Fret not yourself because of the prosperity of the ungodly; fear not those who plot evil; let the soul turn away from sin and put your whole trust in the God of salvation.”  [UB 131:1:9]

Thought Adjuster: “You were telling Me that I hold the strategic advantage to know you inside out, while you get to know Me in some small measure by making educated guesses or through hearsay.

Many fictional narratives were attributed to the Divine Voice throughout the ages.  They originated in the fertile human imagination—often under the grip of fears and the handicaps of ignorance.

“Pray only for values, not things; for growth, not for gratification.”  [UB 91:8:13]

Thought Adjuster: “What happens when the objective of your ‘prayer life’ mainly pertains to the sensory gratification provided by material possessions?  Not much, as such self-centered and self-indulgent requests hover way below the Divine Radar.

“God answers the soul’s attitude, not the words. Prayer is not a technique of escape from conflict but rather a stimulus to growth in the very face of conflict. Pray only for values, not things; for growth, not for gratification.”   [UB 91:8:12-13]

Thought Adjuster: “Dear child, you will never err in assuming that I know the real you.  What about you?  Do you know the real Me? 

It all depends on how much energy you invest in our relationship.  I am not the pushy type; I am the patient one.  I will never impose Myself in your life, even though I AM life itself, as I directly hailed from the First Source and Center of All-That-Is.

“Set your mind at work to solve its problems; teach your intellect to work for you; refuse longer to be dominated by fear like an unthinking animal.  Your mind should be your courageous ally in the solution of your life problems rather than your being, as you have been, its abject fear-slave and the bond servant of depression and defeat.”  [UB 130:6:3]

Thought Adjuster: “At times, it seems to you that you place perfectly acceptable requests for Divine Consideration without getting the solicited return. What you forget is that you live in time-space reality. 

Jesus enjoined to patience: “Everything must wait the coming of its time. […] no amount of anxiety and no manifestation of impatience will help you to grow up.” [UB 130:5:3] Divine Wisdom determines both the method and the timing for the delivery of the answers to prayers.

Thought Adjuster: “You have to feel your way through the darkness, which implies that you may bump into things and get bruised.  When you are taken over by spiritual, emotional, or intellectual gloominess, it is an act of bravery on your part to keep plowing forward, looking for a smart way out. How else could you ever emerge from these claustrophobia-inducing predicaments?
