Number 210: Thinking

While I was drinking juice this morning, I remembered how one time we had left juice in our camping jug for a long time and it turned black. This also reminded me of camping which was a happy memory and made me feel good. Then I realized that I was feeling good about black, nasty juice.

That, of course, is a misinterpretation. I was feeling good about camping and family togetherness. Black juice is gross.

I think sometimes we get mixed up like this when we seek personal revelation. We ask if we should marry person B and we get a good feeling. The good feeling could be that yes, marriage is good and you should seek it. Person B may be the gross juice, though. We have to be so careful! We could be praying about a new business venture, again the good feeling could come from thoughts of wealth. This particular investment may be the gross juice.
