Do you know why there are times when you feel unhappy or depressed?
Your mind is focusing on what you don’t have, not what you do have. It is focusing on what you can’t control instead of what you can control. It is focusing on lack rather than what you already have in your hand. It is focusing on negativity rather than all the positivity you have. That’s why scripture teaches: Philippians 4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honourable, whatever is fair, whatever is pure, whatever is acceptable, whatever is commendable, if there is anything of excellence and if there is anything praiseworthy— keep thinking about these things.
We need to start being grateful instead of staying ungrateful. Have a mindset that stays abundant instead of seeing scarcity. When Jesus saw the 5 loaves of bread & 2 fish, He saw their Buffet Meal through the heart of Gratitude.
If many of us see what we already have, and would be grateful, we will see more multiplication & miracles than what we’ve previously seen. You would be happy, remember that in all things Give Thanks.
I am grateful for all of you who will read this. God bless you for me!
When your eyes learn to see only the goodness of God, complaints will leave your life. It will only be praise. David said: Psalm 42:5 Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God, for once again I will praise him, since his presence saves me. David recognises the gift of the presence of God in his life despite his persecution & depression. David also in that same vein knew to encourage himself in the Lord despite the trouble around his life. Know that it shall all end in Praise!
