Have you ever had a negative thought? A meditation courtesy of our music director Rick Roberts.

Good morning, all.

Have you ever had a negative thought?  If you said "no", you are a saint (or a fibber).  Negativity has sometimes crept into my thoughts.  It's not good.  It saps the energy of all that's good.  Worse yet, negative thoughts become verbal thoughts and that's harmful to listeners and to yourself. 

I try to avoid negativity but, I confess, it still creeps in now and then.  

With that said, here is the quote of the week that's worth sharing: 

"I don't harp on the negative because if you do, then there's no progression. There's no forward movement. You got to always look on the bright side of things, and we are in control. Like, you have control over the choices you make." (Taraji P. Henson)

God, too, is in control and can help you overcome negativity. 

​Prayer is our lifeline.  Pray often.  

Have a blessed day.

With a song in my heart,  Rick
