Thoughts

Every good thing comes from God. This includes your thoughts, words and deeds.  Last night my husband and I starting talking about this subject and how important it is to act on your good thoughts.  We each have so many thoughts that go through our heads and at times we may feel lost and unsure what path to take. We are blessed with the spirit, the holy ghost when we are baptized.  I would ask myself this question often, how do I know that the spirit is helping me choose which way to go? I have always been told that it was just a good feeling or a warm feeling or just some sort of feeling, that would tell me that this is from the spirit. I have realized that yes this is true, but the spirit does not just come from a good feeling all the time. Sometimes the spirit comes through a simple thought.  Every good thing we think is from God and is the spirit helping us make good choices.  So if you have a good thought why wouldn't you want to take every chance you get to act on that thought?  We often hesitate and postpone these good thoughts, but if they come from the lord why not do everything you can to help yourself as well as others grow and learn. What a great blessing the holy ghost is in our lives and to know that he is always by our side is so incredible!!
