Phil 2:13-15
13 For it is God which
worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
14 Do all things
without murmurings and disputings:
15 That ye may be
blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a
crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;
Positive
people produce a positive impact on the world around them. They are pleasant
to be around, and others are attracted to them. Today is a fresh page for us
and we have a choice. Here are a few suggestions from the Bible on how to have
a bright outlook.
Understand
that God is working in you! If you are a child of God, a believer, then you have the Holy Spirit
living in you. He will work non-stop to accomplish marvelous things for you and
through you. You are stronger than you think you are.
Stop
whining! Grumbling only makes the task more miserable because of the focus of
your thinking. “Do all things without murmuring and disputing.” This is a conscious
choice to not cave-in to circumstances. You can’t stop the rain, but
you don’t have to shake your fist at the sky.
Be
different! You live in the midst of a crooked and perverse world. It is a dark
place. Christians live as if they know a secret and indeed, they do because
they know God is involved in every aspect of their life. Shine on!
Dear Lord, let me work
in your strength and not my own. Let me shine with your brightness. AMEN
