We need to nurture a positive attitude and willfully train ourselves to remain vibrantly positive, even in the most trying of times.
It is really wonderful how much resilience there is in human nature. We fly back to hope and enjoyment, in spite of any obstructing cause in our lives, no matter what, comes in our way – even if it is by death.
So our inbuilt system, which is unique and marvelous, is adept to taking on more strain than we bargain for.
Philippians 2:5 of the Bible tells us:
Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus.
The fact that Jesus walked the Earth and showed mankind how it was possible to lead a simple, blemish-free, yet rich-in-spirit life should also help us follow His Path. His message was one of Peace and Love, but He proved that any conflict, suffering, agony caused by others could lead us to Peace, simply through the act of forgiveness.
Resilience, Fortitude, Patience, Forgiveness, Love and Peace – He preached and lived by these spiritual qualities.
PRAYER:
Dear Lord, Thank you for the challenges that build up our strength. Thank You for those who annoy, frustrate and confound us, thus teaching us the art of patience and forgiveness. Thank You for the moments that we are in desperate need for a miracle and then we see the miracle from unexpected sources.Give us a strong heart for the times we feel broken in mind and spirit. Fill us with the Strength and Resilience needed to carry on Life. In Your Name. Amen.
God bless us with His Peace and Love.
