Mornings are important. They set the tone for your entire day. Don’t spend your mornings stressing out about all your tasks. Make it a point to spend a few moments giving thanks for all of your blessings. You should go into your day feeling as though you are ahead of the game. That you can handle whatever comes your way.
Give yourself something to look forward to. An activity you enjoy, or just the chance to be with someone you love. Be determined to be at peace. Be prepared to resist anger. Carry joy with you everywhere.
You just may find it is contagious. Instead of letting everything around you bring you down, be the one who brings everything around you up. It all starts with your mindset in the morning. You control it.
You won’t have joy if the king is not in your heart!
Amen Gay.
Ken, I once had a tee shirt that read “Attitudes are contagious, is yours worth catching”
We were traveling with our youth group to Colorado and the bus broke down. We sat on the side of the road about 4 hours and every time our youth minister walked by, just shook his head. The tee shirt somehow disappeared during the trip.
Great story Bob. Wish I had a tee shirt like that.
