The “reason” people don’t rebuke negative thoughts enough is that they only visit God briefly and sporadically rather than hanging with Him, getting to know His lingo and His great willingness to be the answer to their every need.
WHAT IF Christians were to quit focusing on whether or not their Papa (God) likes hearing them refer to themselves as wretched, and focused rather on the immensity of God’s universe, including its seemingly supernatural realms which reveal themselves first on a quantum level and then are explained logically enough so that ‘he that hath an ear’ can hear and understand!
