Remaining positive

“Rejoice in your hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.”
Romans 12:12

2 - Reflect
These days it is very easy to experience feelings of hopelessness and lack of love amongst brethren. We are constantly subjected to difficult and challenging situations, which can make us feel sad. Losing a job, a sick relative, a child leaving home. Everything can fall apart or teach us valuable lessons. If we think of those events as experiences that will bring greater good to our lives, we will feel less frustrated when something happens. The changes will not always harm us, the truth is that they will often give us

the wisdom we need in order to become better Christians and people.



What is important is to remain positive, and get the most even out of those difficult or confusing situations. God has put us in that situation along our path to make us stronger, to instruct us. We should not let the days go by in vain, we should celebrate our existence and the existence of those around us. It will not benefit us to live in mourning, to complain constantly about our circumstances if we will do nothing to try to improve them. Perhaps today will offer something beautiful for our lives, perhaps it is the day of a new beginning. Today is a day of joy, let us pray and praise the Lord Our God. Trusting that our Heavenly Father will exalt any circumstance that we have to go through will give us the confidence to remain optimistic.
