Attitude

"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than the facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company...a church...a home. The remarkable thing is, we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past...we cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude...I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you...we are in charge of our attitudes."

Love Makes All Things New

 

We can choose life or we can choose death. It all begins in our thinking.

Love will produce positive results. Unhealthy fears will produce negative results. Unfortunately, the world teaches us to fear.

We use many destructive behaviors to escape our fears, alcohol, drugs, sex, gambling, food etc. We must unlearn all the negative thought patterns that are causing our self-destructive behaviors. Love eliminates all fear. We cannot love and fear at the same time. We need to learn to think and act from a perspective of love...then, we can be at peace with ourselves, God, and others.
