Bieng Positive . . . Even When Things Look Negative"

Using NIV-Bible For Scriptures

What does positive mean? Absolutely certain, confident, the opposite of something negative. What does negative mean? Refusal or denial, lacking the quality of being positive, a negative word or statement.

Many times today in alot ot those people around us (or perhaps even yourself,) people have been hurt so many times. They become afraid to be positive. They don't want to accept any form of hope in fear that they again will be dissappointed. In doing this they walk in the negative for they can't face the pain, in fear of failure or another dissappointment.

We have all heard this saying many times: Positive minds can produce positive lives. Negative minds can produce negative lives. If you have positive thoughts then you are thinking, faith and hope. But, if you have negative thoughts then you are thinking fear and doubt.

In my lifetime, I have encounter many hurts and even some devastating dissappoinments. This sometimes caused me to become very negative and feel as tho nothing good was ever going to happen. When we become negative in our thinking patterns,our life and mouth also become negative. We don't have to live a negative life,even in what seems to be negative circumstances around us. We need to focus on living positive and pleasing to God.

Let's read the scripture Matthew 8:13-Then Jesus said to the centurion,"GO"! It will be done just has you believed it would. And this servant was healed at that very hour. Now , we all know that we don't get what we want from God by just thinking we are going to. God has a plan for each of our lives,and we cannot and will never be able to control God with our thoughts and our words. But we can walk in the positve by coming into agreement with God's word, and letting it rise up within us and become a positve outlook in our life. You may be thinking this today: I don't know what God's will is for my life......Even tho today you might not know what God's will is for your life, you can know that He loves you and whatever His plan is for your life, think positive and know that you will be blessed. Get out of negative living and start walking in the positive. Began today by thinking positve about "YOU" I really believe if all of us would try to start thinking positive in circumstances in our life: even when things look pretty bad. God can take that negative and make a good positve outcome surface up. But we have to EXPECT GOD TO MAKE GOOD COME OUT OF IT,JUST AS HIS WORD SAYS. We can walk in positve!

ALL THINGS WORK FOR GOOD! Romans 8:28 - And we know that in all things love Him, who have been called according to His Purpose.

This don't say that all things are good.........but all things work together for good Paul tells us this:Romans 12:16 - Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited.

We need to simply become people that plan things out, and don't fall apart when things don't work out. That is just part of this thing we are on called Journey Of Life Today get in God's word, become a positve trooper! Say GOOD-BYE TO NEGATIVE THINKING! AND HELLO TO A POSITVE WALK WITH GOD......

A Quick Reminder: Even a positive person does'nt always have everything to work out. But a positve person can go ahead and be happy no matter what happens.

A negative person seems to find no joy or good in anything.......
The Choice is ours..... Positve or Negative....which will you choose?
