Happy New Year
I keep thinking about how much power we have over how we
feel about our lives. Good things
happen, bad things happen. Are they good
or are they bad? Sometimes we decide
whether a thing is a good thing or not.
While not to make light of those really difficult
moments, much of what we consider bad is actually quite normal and even tolerable
if one would choose to see it that way.
When we are ruled by our comfort and our preference, we tend to see more
bad. When we are ruled by a higher
directive, we can see the good.
My friend Joy ends her emails with the phrase, “choose
to make it a happy day.” How about we
choose to make it a Happy Year. Happy
New Year.
It’s a beautiful day in God’s world, be sure to see the good.
