SEE AS HE SEES - Understanding the Truth:
a. For the next week, review this section on: "How to be thankful in your adversities." it is important to have some experience with seeing all things spiritually (thought pattern #4) and some experience using enticements for spiritual growth (thought pattern #5), before working on this thought pattern.
b. Understanding the importance of being thankful for ALL things.
THINK AS HE THINKS - Hold the truth in your mind, by prayer, throughout the day.
a. Several times a day, talk with Heavenly Father about the purpose of adversities and how you will be steadfast by keeping a spiritual focus. If you do not have any adversities to work on, then keep working on using enticements to practice remaining steadfast in Christ. The adversary will come, and when it comes, you will be well prepared to remain steadfast in Christ.
b. Practice being thankful with each enticement. Feel the difference of how being thankful keeps the shield of faith up.
FEEL AS HE FEELS - Continue to pray about these truths until you receive a witness by the spirit that each is good.
a. Seek to feel the Spirit confirm this truth of the purpose of adversities and experience the power of Christ being released on your behalf.
b. Transferring the pain, sorrow, and suffering to the spiritual world takes faith in Christ. It takes patience, diligence, long suffering before you will receive the fruit you desire. (Alma 32:43).
DO AS HE DOES:
Doing all these faith exercises out of the love you have for the Heavenly Father & the Savior makes it easier, and gives you increased strength to continue. Experience the joy of being thankful in all things.
