44 Never be on the wrong side

This episode of Whole Life Healing is part of a foundational series that we will be featuring. Please forgive the inferior sound quality, as this was a recorded conference call. Maybe you come from a background like Dr. Alex’s that told you the balance of your good and bad deeds determined who you were as a person and there wasn’t much you could do to change that except for doing more good things and fewer bad things. This is a very wrong approach to life because it removes grace and love from the situation and encourages you to pursue love substitutes instead. Ultimately, what matters is what is in your heart, and everyone has done wrong things internally, externally, or both. That is a fact of life that cannot be denied or changed, but there are ways to make sure you do not go down the path of pain and fear, where you will be lost. If you are being tempted to do wrong, you are still on the right side. You can’t be tempted to go somewhere you already reside, so when you are on the wrong side, you will not be tempted; you will just be acting according to your nature at that point. If you are on the right side, you will experience a struggle with the darkness that is tempting you. We go into the darkness to get something, not to lose something, but darkness always causes us to lose the most important things to us and gain nothing in comparison. You can experience or do some bad things and still be living in the light, as long as you are still experiencing temptation and you believe in your heart that you are on the side of light and love. After this episode, spend some time in prayer and meditation asking God to heal and renew your heart and bring you back to the right side if you feel you have gone astray. You can join Dr. Alex each Wednesday for the live podcast covering the topics of health, wellness, relationships, and success, pertaining to the whole life: mind, body and spirit. They are held every Wednesday afternoon and are completely free to anyone who would like to join.
