The longer I live, the more I

realize the impact o attitude

on lie. The remarkable thing

is we have a choice every day

regarding the attitude we will

embrace or that day. We cannot

change our past. We cannot

change the act that people will

act in a certain way. We cannot

change the inevitable. The only

thing we can do is play on the

string we have, and that is our

attitude. I am convinced that lie

is 10 percent what happens to me

and 90 percent how I react to it.

ANSWERS O YOUR QUESIONS

The Positive

Power of Praise

By Bonita Hele

Jesus, thank You or lie and all it

involves. When something goes

wrong, we oten say, Thats lie!But lie is so much more than the

little things that dont turn out

the way we wish they had.

Waking up each morning

with eyes that see and ears that

hearthats lie!

Talking with a child and

catching a glimpse o the world

through those innocent eyes

thats lie!

Pausing in the middle o a hecticday to watch a bird soar or a

butterly lit among the lowers

thats lie!

Chatting with an old riend and

remembering just how special that

riendship isthats lie!

Receiving an unexpected word

o encouragementthats lie!

Holding a newborn baby and

catching his frst smilethats

Walking in nature, taking in sights and sounds, and breath

that resh airthats lie!

Lying down to sleep at night

and thanking God or all the

blessings that the day brough

thats lie!

How long did it take to learn to putthese praise principles into practice?L . I ,

, . I B C, G z: I . D , I .1 A H

Some have asked me

i this principle o

praise isnt just anoth

way to talk about the

power o positive

thinking. Far rom it.

Praising God or every

circumstance does no

mean we close our

eyes to the diiculties

When we praise God,

we thank Him or our

situation, not in spite

o it. We are not trying

to avoid our dilemma

Rather, Jesus is

showing us a way

to overcome them.
