There's An Answer (by Norman Vincent Peale and Ruth Stafford Peale) & Getting rid of bad thoughts Q. You often advise people to empty out wrong thoughts and fill their minds with right ones. Would you please help me? How does one fill their mind with thoughts of God? And how do you get the wrong thoughts out? How do you get rid of jealous feelings? A. The best way is by the process of displacement. Deliberately think as many good, happy, loving thoughts as you can every day about everything and everyone. Put the best connotation on everything and everyone. Good thoughts are basically more powerful than wrong thoughts. A habitaual stress on good thoughts will ultimately begin to displace jealousy, fear, hate or whatever. And keep putting into your mind plenty of God thoughts. This is done by reading and affirming great truths from the Bible, especially in the Psalms and New Testament. , . To help you in this we are sending you our booklet, Thought Conditioners, which is free to any reader of this column. Write to us at Box 500, Pawling, N.Y., 12564. Love had died Q. For many years I have struggled with an incompatible, unhappy marriage. I know I have accumulated resentments caused by-my husband's uncontrolled temper, his meanness and deliberate acts of unkindness. I feel he doesn't respect me as 8' person. My love for him has been destroyed. How can yc someone for whom you have no respect? How can I forgive s all the wrongs are continually repeated? How can I make mys love the unlovable? . A. You have stated a difficult question but we will make a ffcw'3 suggestions. Look for one good trait in your husband and write it down. Then lode for another one. Perhaps after much effort you can add up several. Then in your own mind forgive him and work at emptying out the resentments, for they are poison in your 1 mind. * Next, beam love thoughts in your husband's direction. Don't mention them to him but simply send them out This will create a powerful new atmosphere and, if persevered in, is bound to affect him. We have known miracles to happen by use of this method. Don't write this advice off. It works astonishingly Has tried everything Q. I have a 17 year-old son whom I took to church and raised in * the church. Since he has a car and part-time job he has in completely turned his back on God. He stays out late, 1, 2 or 3 1 o'clock most every night, and I can't sleep until he gets home. J Sometimes he stays out all night. I have tried everything I know and pray constantly for him. Please give me some advice. A. Staying out late nights doesn't necessarily mean he has i "turned his back on God". You see, God stays up late too. In fact, ; He is up all the time looking out for boys like your son, who don't • know enough to get some sleep instead of hanging around. Keep on praying for him to use his head. ? ; If there is something you would like to ask Dr. and Mrs. Peale to discuss in this column, write to them in care of Box 500, Pawling, N.Y., 12564.
