4 Thoughts That Can Change Your Life

4 Thoughts That Can Change Your Life

Philippians 3:13, 14 " Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus."

-Be Thankful For What You Have.

Sometimes we end up cheating ourselves simply because we pay more attention to what we’re missing, rather than what we have.  Instead of thinking about what you’re missing, think about what you have that everyone else is missing. Don't squander that gift, but put it to use in the work of the Lord and be blessed for it.

 

-Assume Your Responsibilities.

In every situation you have ever been in, positive or negative, the one common thread is you.  Responsibility means recognizing that regardless of what has happened up to this point in your life, you are capable of making choices to change your situation, or to change the way you think about it. Please remember, the only person able to do that is YOU!

 

-Enlarge Your Territory.

You can choose to let your past define you and confine you, or you can choose to learn, grow, and leave it behind you.  Just like the seasons, you have the ability to change.  In many ways, you already have and will continue to do so if you expand your vision and see what wait before you rather than constantly looking over your shoulder and wondering what could have been. Your season is today and tomorrow, not yesteryear or yesterday.

 

-Don't Give Up!

All things are difficult before they are easy.  It’s not about failing or falling, it’s about getting back up and trying again.  Success is not a skill, it is a persistent attitude. It's means in spite of every setback, you keep pushing forward until you reach the prize that is set before you.
