Thoughts are things

If we look to the body for pleasure, we find pain; for Life, we find death; for Truth, we find error; for Spirit,

we find its opposite, matter. Now reverse this action. Look away from the body into Truth and Love, the Principle of all happiness, harmony, and immortality. Hold thought steadfastly to the endur- ing, the good, and the true, and you will bring these into your experience proportionably to their occupancy of your thoughts.
