Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you
Our attitude determines the difference we make. Our focus on God’s goodness factors into our ability to have kingdom impact.
People with the right attitude often do impossible things. Conversely, people with the wrong attitude do little; they tie their own hands.
In every circumstance, our attitude decides whether to name it a blessing or a burden. In every challenge, we choose whether to believe God for more or to become frustrated by the situation. Our attitude determines whether we will praise Him or whether we will dissolve into complaints and accusations.
Complaining cancels out the power of praise. God instructs everything that has breath to praise Him. Praise Him for His mighty acts! Praise Him for His excellent greatness! When we elevate our perspective, our attitude comes into alignment.
Our attitude is determined by three things: the gratitude that is in our hearts, how we praise God, and the time that we spend in prayer. We are not helpless victims of our emotions. We have the option to choose our actions and reactions. We get to decide.
Rejoice always. Pray without ceasing. In everything, give thanks. This is the will of God in Christ Jesus for all of us. These actions determine our attitude and the difference we make.
Blessing:
May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you and give you His peace. May God give you beauty for ashes, joy for mourning, and praise for discouragement. In everything, give thanks to God to make a difference in this world!
