Positive Attitude 101

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will.Romans 12:2

Zippidy do da, zippidy day. My oh my what a wonderful day. Yes it is a wonderful day. Stop and think of all the things you have to be grateful for. Make a list. 

Here are some of mine to give you an idea. Good health. Freedom. Family. Granddaughter. Friends near and far. Food. Clean water. Education. Ability to write my devotions daily. Being born in America. Great upbringing. Superb church home. Energy and then some. My car and ability to be able to drive. Money to spend. No debt. Great hard working Christian husband. Ability to breathe and smell, taste, see and hear. You get the idea. 

Start each day on a positive note. If you are going for a walk why not clear your head of distractions such as being on your phone or listening to podcasts and such and just think of the goodness of life. Start mentally making a list of the things that bring you joy and in the process discard those things that drag you down. Now go have a blessed day. 

PRAYER: Lord you are good all the time and all the time you are good! I thank you for being able to read my Bible and have joy of the Lord even in dire circumstances. Help me to reach out to others not so joyful. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
