Dispirited
De-spirited

When you feel dispirited, know this need not be so. The presence of God is always with you. His Holy Spirit guides you, comforts you, contains you.

You cannot be without God. You can only imagine that you are. Stop your ceaseless imagining. Do not think that you can walk away from What you are. You are and always will be Love, Love incarnate for awhile. Your acts, your behavior, result from your thinking. If you want to change your feelings, change the way you think! Go to the source of thought. Who is thinking? Who is imagining?

The thoughts you "entertain" are only entertaining you - here, there, this or that. The thoughts you "think" with the Holy Spirit direct you and focus you. They emerge from your source rather than flitter about your mind. Stay founded in the source and dismiss the flickering flies that scatter your attention.
