Just for today try something new. Take a moment to be a little “unlike” your normal everyday self. Respond a little differently to the things in your world instead of blurting out the usual always there response. Choose to smile instead of frown. Try listening instead of interjecting your opinion. Give patience another try even if it means taking ten deep breaths before attempting it again. Just for today. Let’s try something new.
Just for today search diligently for the positives to highlight and lowercase all the negatives that jump out at you. Find a way to show compassion instead of judgement today. Try something new by turning in early to get some much needed sleep. Today, choose water over soda. Be spontaneous in giving thanks for your blessings instead of grumbling over what you don’t have. Choose peace over strife in the next 24 hours. Just for today give something new a chance to spring forth from a tiny hope seed planted.
Just for today choose to reconnect with God. Choose to forgive someone and not carry around the pain their offense caused you. Take a moment to talk to God. This is called prayer if you want to be technical but I call it developing a friendship with the best counselor there will ever be in your life. Build a bond in which a relationship can abide. Sing the song “Jesus Loves Me” instead of your normal music genre today. Make time to read something in the Bible. Tell someone you love them instead of criticizing their flaw. Instead of looking out for only yourself today look to care for someone in need or who is less fortunate. Be a giver not a taker. Try something new just for today. It may be the only day you have left. Choose wisely just for today.
"Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." Philippians 4: 6-7 "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever." Hebrews 13:8
Amen🙏🏻
That is good food for thought and to put into action.
If we all would just make these small choices each day life would be so much better. Be blessed!
Great thoughts and ideas to challenge yourself to do better.
Super simple to do. Joy is a choice. Forgiveness is a choice. Kindness is a choice. We should choose them everyday in some kind of way. Be blessed!
