that's how easy love can be,” Jackson 5
While studying psychology I had to learn various theories about human behavior. One theory by Albert Ellis teaches the ABC model of attitude. In life, we are not only asked to grow in knowledge or achievement, but in attitude—the very lens through which we experience the world. The ABC model of attitudes offers a simple but profound framework to reflect upon: Affect, Behavior, and Cognition. When seen through spiritual eyes, this trio becomes a mirror to our soul’s growth. Affect is the emotional response we have to a person, situation, or idea. It reveals what resides in our heart—whether love or fear, compassion or judgment. Behavior is how we act based on those feelings. Our actions ripple into the world, shaping not just our path, but the collective energy we all share. Cognition is what we think and believe. These thoughts build the foundation of our reality and fuel both emotion and action. Spiritually speaking, our attitude becomes a sacred trinity—heart, hands, and head—all working in harmony (or disharmony) to either elevate or delay our ascension. When we pause to align these three aspects with the divine essence within us, we begin to walk in truth and light. A spiritually aligned attitude is one where love guides the heart (Affect), peace guides our steps (Behavior), and wisdom guides the mind (Cognition).
Dear Angels, what happens when these parts are in conflict? When our thoughts doubt what our heart knows? Or our actions betray the love we feel? How can we harmonize our feelings, behaviors, and thoughts to grow spiritually?
Dear Ones, to harmonize is to remember. Remember that you are not separate from Source, nor from the divine blueprint encoded within you. Your emotions are messengers, not rulers. Listen, but do not become them. Let your actions be love in motion, not fear in disguise. Each step can be a sacred offering when done with awareness. And your thoughts are the architects of your reality. Guard them gently. Invite truth in, and question anything that creates separation or shame.
Ask daily:
Does this thought uplift or diminish me?
Does this feeling come from love or lack?
Does this action reflect my soul or my shadow?
When you live this way, the ABCs no longer just explain your attitude—they become the alphabet of your awakening.
Angel Whisper: Your attitude is your altar. What you place upon it—thought, feeling, or deed—becomes the offering that shapes your destiny. May you bring awareness to the temple of your being and choose to fill it with peace, joy, and truth. One sacred letter at a time.
Today, I promise to pay attention to my ABC’s.
