“You cannot have a positive life and a negative mind.”
What a great quote! If we want to start living life to the fullest in God and make a positive impact on others, it all starts in our hearts. Sure, life isn’t easy and our attitudes and emotions aren’t always going to be bright. But that doesn’t mean we should spend every moment of our lives being negative! Too many people get caught up in a negative rut without even realizing it. Our hearts, minds, and souls are too valuable to subject to constant negativity. The Bible says it this way
“Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.”
The discouraging messages we tell ourselves, the negative attitudes we keep… all those things bring us down and don’t point us to Jesus. And they don’t point others to Him, either! Do a heart check this week and see if you are in a negative rut. If you are, pray that God will lift the things that are burdening you and help you stay focused on the blessings He has to offer. You might find it makes you feel so much lighter!
Journey on!
