The Dr. Seuss Quote for today is . . . "Everything stinks till it's finished!" Hmmm . . . I definitely do not agree with this saying, because while some things in life are difficult, and even unpleasant at times, others are pure joy! Even when things are not going the way we want, we can have an attitude of joy, so whether something "stinks" or not, is completely up to us!
Look at Philippians 4:4-9, "Be full of joy in the Lord always. I will say again, be full of joy. Let everyone see that you are gentle and kind. The Lord is coming soon. Do not worry about anything, but pray and ask God for everything you need, always giving thanks. And God's peace, which is so great we cannot understand it, will keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. Brothers and sisters, think about the things that are good and worthy of praise. Think about the things that are true and honorable and right and pure and beautiful and respected. Do what you learned and received from me, what I told you, and what you saw me do. And the God who gives peace will be with you."
Be full of joy always! Do not worry about anything, but instead pray and talk to God with a thankful heart! If you do these things, you will experience God's peace, which is so amazing we can not understand it! Think about things which are good, worthy of praise, true, honorable, right, pure,beautiful and respected and God will be with us!
So! . . . maybe a better "saying would be, "Rejoice! Be thankful and experience God's peace!" It's all about attitude!
