Meditate On
The lamp of the body is the eye. If
therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light. But if your
eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness...
Matthew 6:22–23
Start
Looking At The Bright Side
It’s time for a new beginning! Let this day
be the day where you start to live life praising God! When good things happen,
you say, “Praise the Lord!” When bad things happen, you say, “Praise the Lord
anyway!”
Start to live life praising God. Find
something good about your country and praise God for it. Find something good
about your church and praise God for it. Find something good about your spouse
or children and praise God for it!
When you start looking at good things, you
will feel so blessed, so rich. Being rich is not a matter of having lots of
money. Some people say, “If I have a million dollars, I’ll be rich and happy.”
No, you can have a million dollars and still feel poor—always looking around
and wondering, “Who will take this from me? How long will this amount of money
last?”
So stop majoring on the negative or bad
things in your life today. Don’t spend your time and energy constantly focused
on what’s not right with your circumstances. Jesus said that the lamp of the
body is the eye. When you keep focusing on what is evil in your life, your eye
is bad, and your whole body will be full of darkness. But if you keep looking
at the bright side—at His goodness, mercy and favor toward you—your eye is
good, and your whole body will be full of light!
