Completed!

Attitude.  It's what gives me more headache from myself and others than anything else that could pose a problem for me.  Everyday I face myself, my attitude, and my mind set. Everyday I face my husband's attitude, my children's attitude, my co-worker's attitude, etc...everyday.  It's not like I can get away from it, so I decided to embrace it 7 days ago.

How did I embrace someone else's attitude? Well, I took a closer look at my own!  You Version has a bible reading plan called Attitude.  Just 7 days of focus on scripture, God's words, and God's requirements can change your, well... attitude!

So my closer look showed me that I am negative more than I am positive. I look for the reasons that things won't work first. I propose a "better" solution to my children's problems than what they come up with on their own.  I finally realized that I view myself and my opinion as higher/better/more ....of something.

Well all it was more of was ME!  The past 7 days I have absorbed God's words about putting others first, thinking of others as higher than yourself, loving God before anything else, then loving your neighbor, not worrying about anything, cuz God's got it.

Today I wake and rejoice that God is doing a new thing in me. I've completed this 7 day attitude check and I'm so excited to be a part of a ministry that God is using to impact the lives of children in Florida.  Use me God, I'll step aside. The work is just beginning!
