It's UP to You: Daily Thoughts for Better Living

The Spiritual Idea: Purity, Renunciation, or Elimination

Cleansing and purification is very necessary for all of us at one time or another. Purifying and cleansing the body allows the (divine) health that is our natural state to be restored. The same holds true with our minds, even more so, because as our minds are restored to their natural way, we are brought to a remembrance of our divinity. By steadfastly thinking and holding thoughts of the Truth of our Being, our bodies will out picture our dominant thoughts. November has been chosen as the month we focus on purifying our minds and bodies. In December we will celebrate the spiritual idea of Life, but we must be purified mentally, physically and spiritually before God’s perfect Life can come forth. We must purify ourselves so that the Holy Spirit, which can only manifest through a purified temple, can do Its work in and through us. Let us take time this month to cleanse and purify our thoughts and feelings, so that our words will reflect this cleansing and our actions and reactions will be in harmony with our new determination. Let us praise God for this deep purifying and cleansing of our total selves, preparing us for the Abundant Life that was designed by God for us in the beginning.

Have a blessed month, magnifying the Lord daily within; allowing the Holy Spirit to move through you, cleansing and purifying you. Praise God all this month for the most profound, in-depth purification you have ever had.
