FINDING THE LIGHT IN THE DARKEST HOURS_MOTIVATIONAL MONDAY MOMENT

It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light.
Aristotle Onassis
HEALTHY MIND:

I believe that we go through life challenges to build us stronger and to equip us for something greater. However, it is often difficult to stay positive during the trials of life. But if we stop for just a moment and reflect on our lives, we realize there have been many dark moments. And when we realize that we also realize there have been many light moments.

No matter what you are going through today, remember the sun will shine again. Whether you are suffering from grief, depression, or some other disappointment, He has a way of turning it around for you.

"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." Romans 8:28

I have learned to focus on the things that are a blessing in my life, and give less attention to the negative. When I change my perspective to focus on the positive, it diminishes the power of the negative.
