What was your mood when you awoken this morning?
Better question...
What mood did you let decide was going to control your day this morning?
The reason I asked this question was more retoricle than anything but the point is how do you let the choice of your moods every morning control your days events or attitude? Most of us do not realize how we choose the mood that we are in. We walk through life blaming everyone else for how we feel. We expect everyone else to cheer us up, stay in our good graces or to keep us out of a negative/bad mood. The fact is that if you are not happy it is because you are choosing not to be happy. It is all about outlook or perspective.
So often we crawl everyday of life looking at every task as something that we have to do instead of opportunities that we are blessed with.
Example...
Most mornings we awaken and say, "We HAVE to go to work." We very seldomly look at what a great opportunity we have in being of able body and mind to hold a job. We do the same things in many aspects of our lives weather it is dealing with our children, going grocery shopping, working out, reading anything besides a grocery store checkout tabloid headlines, even attending a family event or function. If we were to stop and put ourselves in a more positive mood about these daily task such as looking at everything as an oppotunity to do and be better, We can be in a Better Attitude about the things we do. Appreciate your job, you have one. Appreciate your children, they are a blessing. Love going to the grocery store, you have money to eat and we all love to eat right? Recognize your blessings while they are here and your mood will change drastically.
Today is the Day that the Lord has Made...
