Negative thoughts, opinions, and bad memories have no Life in them. Remember that Life means union with Us. Those things have no basis in Us and cannot be a part of Us. Therefore dark thoughts, bad memories, self opinions, all are a part of dying flesh. “Why do you look for the Living among the dead?” Do not hold on to those dead things, but renew your mind with what is Alive which is Our Presence and Our Truth . . . Our Words, your experiences with Us. Determine to know only Life with Us, and let all else die. Then you will be renewed, living Life more abundantly. Let the dead thoughts be buried with dead things, as they are all perishing. Examine all that goes through the mind and turn away from death. Then you will walk in newness of Life . . . union with Us. Hebrews 12:1-2 1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off every encumbrance and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with endurance the race set out for us. 2 Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.… Ephesians 4:22-23 22 You were taught to put off your former way of life, your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; 23 to be renewed in the spirit of your minds; 24 and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.… Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.
