My wrong thinking cannot fix my wrong thinking. Right thinking and right feelings come after right actions, never before. If I pray for courage, faith, love, or strength, in order to merely possess it for myself then it means nothing and I will be dissatisfied, intolerant and lacking of acceptance despite my prayers. If, however I act in courage or in faith, show love, or take action when I am fearful, then in that moment I possess courage, faith, love, and strength. Which is more important, that others be accepting, loving, forgiving, and repentant, or for me to be accepting, loving, forgiving and repentant?
