Attitude is Everything
Philippians 2:5-9
With the right attitude we cease “awfulizing” our
circumstances and start accepting our circumstances. We stop viewing ourselves as victims and see ourselves as
victors.
PHILIPPIANS 2:5-9
Things work out the best for those who
make the best of the way things work out.

PHILIPPIANS 2:5
“Oh God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you … in a dry and weary land where there is
no water … because your love is better than life, my lips will
glorify you. I will praise you as long as I live and in your name I
will lift up my hands.”
PSALM 63:1-4
What lies behind us and what lies before us are
tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
OLIVER WENDALL HOLMES, JR.
“…I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have
plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every
situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything
through Him who gives me strength…”
PHILIPPIANS 4:10-14
“I can do everything through Him who gives
me strength.”
I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. We are all in
charge of our attitudes.
