Half-way To Happy

Stop! Wait a minute! You're almost there! Well if you are seeing the glass half-empty. We have to choose our outlook. We either choose to give in to negative feelings or we choose to find the good in things.

As believer's we are to think about things that are above and not beneath. We are to be thankful in all things. It's hard sometimes, but it is a lesson we all need to learn and sometimes re-learn.

Find a reason to be thankful. Then really meditate on the goodness of that thing. Tell the Lord you are thankful for it and praise Him, even in the midst of your pain. Before long you will find your outlook has changed. You will have hope again and the glass? Oh that will be more than full!



Proverbs 17:22

A merry heart does good, like medicine,  But a broken spirit dries the bones.   Philippians 4:8   Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.   Ps. 23:5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil;  My cup runs over.
