Sometimes life hurts. Sometimes people fail. Sometimes plans fall apart. Sometimes things just don’t turn out the way you initially planned. So, what do you do? Many people get mad, quit, throw in the towel and refuse to keep moving forward. That is a guaranteed way to lose. Others, choose to get back up, keep smiling, keep dreaming and keep on believing that God is going to work things out for the good.
There are three areas where you need to be positive rather than negative.
a. Your Thoughts- Proverbs 23:7 (NKJV) For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.
b. Your Words- Proverbs 18:21 (NIV) The tongue has the power of life and death.
c. Your Actions- John 15:9 (NIV) “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you.
Being positive is a choice you make every day. You don’t have any choice on whether or not bad things will happen. They happen to everyone. But you do have a choice on how you will respond. The word of the day is, “Always keep a positive attitude.” This will make your life better.
Your attitude determines your altitude.
