We have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for the day. Life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we react to it. Our attitude is everything.
This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody. There was an important job to do and Everybody was asked to do it. Everybody was sure Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it. Somebody got angry because it was Everybody’s job. Everybody thought Anybody would do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it. It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.
God is a specialist at making something useful and beautiful out of something broken and confused.
Don't get older; get better: Live realistically. Give generously. Adapt willingly. Trust fearlessly. Rejoice daily.
We are all faced with a series of great opportunities brilliantly disguised as impossible situations.
Today is unique! It has never occurred and it will never be repeated. At midnight it will end, quietly, suddenly, totally. Forever. But the hours between now and then are opportunities with eternal possibilities.
Worry erases the promises of God from your mind.
The longer I live the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company . . . a church . . . a home.
One of the marks of maturity is the ability to disagree without becoming disagreeable
Choose to view life through God's eyes. This will not be easy because it doesn't come naturally to us. We cannot do this on our own. We have to allow God to elevate our vantage point. Start by reading His Word, the Bible...Pray and ask God to transform your thinking. Let Him do what you cannot. Ask Him to give you an eternal, divine perspective.
Don't seek more days in your life but more life in your days.
Prayer is an investment. The time you dedicate to prayer isn't lost; it will return dividends far greater than what a few moments spent on a task ever could. If we fail to cultivate this discipline, prayer winds up being our last resort rather than our first response.
Anything under God's control is never out of control.
The world has changed and it's going to keep changing, but God never changes; so we are safe when we cling to Him.
Encourage one another. Many times a word of praise or thanks or appreciation or cheer has kept people on their feet.
Laughter is the most beautiful and beneficial therapy God ever granted humanity.
Every one of us can blame somebody for something that has happened in our lives. But don't waste your time. What we need most is a steady stream of love flowing among us. Love that quickly forgives, willingly overlooks, and refuses to take offense.
The past is over... forget it. The future holds hope... reach for it.
One of the problems with worry is that it keeps you from enjoying what you have.
Patience is a bitter plant that produces sweet fruit.
We aren't just thrown on this earth like dice tossed across a table. We are lovingly placed here for a purpose
People who soar are those who refuse to sit back, sigh and wish things would change. They neither complain of their lot nor passively dream of some distant ship coming in. Rather, they visualize in their minds that they are not quitters; they will not allow life's circumstances to push them down and hold them under.
Do you need strength? Peace? Wisdom? Direction? Discipline? Ask for it! God will hear you.
When you accept the fact that sometimes seasons are dry and times are hard and that God is in control of both, you will discover a sense of divine refuge, because the hope then is in God and not in yourself.
Allow me to offer a simple definition of wisdom. Wisdom is looking at life from God's point of view.
