“Good health is the mind, body and soul living in harmony as one.” Unknown

 Health is a state of well being and those things which promote it. Why wouldn’t we want health? Why do anything, whether actions, or attitudes if they are going to harm our health? Refuse any attitude, any action that does not bring you love, joy and peace. Give yourself completely to those habits of the body and soul that bring nothing but pure benefit and absolute goodness to you and others.

“When anger gets the best of people it often brings out the worst in them.“ Meme

 I have seen anger “get the best” of people. I have seen it “get the best” of me. Who hasn’t given in to the demands of anger and said things better not said? I always feel “beat up” afterward. The good book wisely advises us to, “Be angry but sin not.” Anger is a natural emotion, and can properly be expressed, when it is directed right and controlled in action and duration. Learn when to turn it on, and when to turn it off. Use its energy, but never let it use you in some destructive way.  “

“Adopting the right attitude can convert a negative stress into a positive one.” Hans Selye

It has been said many times by many people, “It’s all in how you look at it.” Our goal isn’t to simply put on a happy face, but to conform our thinking to Christ’s way of thinking. Speak the truth to your heart and change the way you look at things. Do not let your past, or present circumstances define you. Define who you are by affirming God declared truths. Let them course through the veins of your attitude, and flow into the world of your actions. 

“Let the Spirit change your way of thinking.” Eph. 4:23 Conversations Within” ts 9/21/2020

“I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it.” Charles R. Swindoll

Attitude can determine not only our disposition, it can influence our actions in powerful ways. A bad attitude will lead to bad actions. Praise be, a good attitude can shape every day in peace. Attitude is everything where "love, joy, peace and patience" are concerned. Nobody can control everything that happens to them, but every single one of us can choose our attitude about it. Our attitude may not solve all of our problems, but it will shape our disposition with positive energy while we deal with them. 

“Let this attitude be in you which was also in Christ Jesus.” Conversations Within” ts 9/20/2020

”Say what you mean, mean what you say.” Axiom

 Words are a wonderful gift, and the power to communicate a privilege. Speak sparingly and hold precious every word you say. There is no need for sensational headlining, when a simple straightforward answer will do. Do not devalue your words by inflating them with expletives. Five factual words of good news are worth ten thousand sensational headlines.
