What we're really after is trying to understand what's in the mind of God.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've discovered that when we take time to renew our minds with God's Word, we learn how to think like God thinks, say what God says, and act like He wants us to act.
Thinking: the talking of the soul with itself.
We experience God to the extent to which we love, forgive, and focus on the good in others and ourselves.
Every child is a thought in the mind of God, and our task is to recognize this thought and help it toward completion.
It is good to have an intellectual awareness of our dependence upon God - to understand how great He is and how very small we are in His sight.
What the mind doesn't understand, it worships or fears.
God gave us the mind so that we can know him.
God is a metaphor for that which transcends all levels of intellectual thought. It's as simple as that.
From the smallest necessity to the highest religious abstraction, from the wheel to the skyscraper, everything we are and everything we have comes from one attribute of man - the function of his reasoning mind.
We understand God by everything in ourselves that is fragmentary, incomplete, and inopportune.
