It isn't always easy to deal with things in life with a good attitude. Boy, do I know that! But I want to finish my course with joy! Acts 20:25
Today I heard a message that helped me feel even more enthusiastic about being able to do that. There were several points that I want to keep fresh in my mind. I hope you won't mind if I share them with you.
1. I need to preset my mind for victory. I like the Bible text "Set your mind and keep it set." Colossians 3:2 ( I want to finish my course with joy!)
2. There will be pain! Oh no! Yep, the pain of discipline or regret. I can feel the pain of disciplining myself or regret that I didn't. (exercise, food, or attitude. to name a few)
3. I may need to zip my lip. "Drop it, leave it, let it go" Mark 11:25 AMP I like, "What you don't feed...dies." Stop thinking and talking about something that's not helping me to, "Finish my course with joy."
4. Oh freedom! Being able to be happy when things don't go my way. Now that's freedom!
5. Now this is really #1. Put God first and depend on Him to help me. Because I want to, "Finish my course with JOY!"
