Remember the song "Good Vibrations" by the Beach Boys?

The Law of Thought
By Reverend Grace Lee Bonnell

     Our thoughts and words are things.This is an ancient truth that is being proven scientifically within the last ten to fifteen years in the study of 'vibration.' The studies have included the use in the medical fields to effect our physical health, how water crystals and other liquids can be altered by concentrated thoughts. They have even measured how long the vibration of a scream or a simple sneeze to travel from one point to another thousands of miles away. The study of vibration has created an amazing awareness in truly how powerful our thoughts are. It should also prove to us that we, through out thoughts change things and situations. The BIG question then becomes; what kind of world do we desire?

     When we think of a word, we realize that preceding that word was a thought. The entire Plan of Creation is predicated that word was a Thought. It is through our thoughts that certain things are brought into expression or produced or changed. This is The Law of Thought and the law applies today as it always has and always will.

     A current researcher, Masaru Emoto, explains the emergence of a new epidemic in our world, which starts in our thoughts. Our thoughts of fear, grief, worry, lack of trust, anger, loneliness and hostility are creating a field vibration that is destructive to us personally and globally. And, apparently, there are other researchers and theologians which agree. These destructive vibrations can only change through our individual and collective thoughts and words.The greater power, which will correct these negative vibrations, is Love.

     We can correct our negative thoughts with our thoughts of Love. Love when there seems to be nothing to love or be loved. We find this kind of Love, which we can fill our thoughts with, in our prayers and meditations. It matters not the denomination. The important thing is that we learn to change our negative thoughts to the higher vibration of Love each time those negative thoughts or feelings come into our heart and minds.

     Correcting the vibrations of our personal world as well as the global world - is important. The practice of filling our hearts and minds with this kind of Love is urgent today. Let us use the Law of Thought to produce a world filled with the highest vibrations. "Change Your Thinking - Change Your World."

Reverend Grace is a fully ordained interdenominational minister.

"What we are is the result of what we have thought, is built by our thoughts, is made up of our thoughts. If one speaks or acts with an impure thought, suffering follows one, like the wheel of the cart follows the foot of the ox. What we are is the result of what we have thought, is built by our thoughts, is made up of our thoughts. If one speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows one, like a shadow that never leaves."
