Be Positive

Positive“A negative mind will never give you a positive life.” – Anonymous

In a classroom of high school students, a teacher asked, “If were in possession of $86,400.00 and someone took $10.00 would you throw away the $86,390.00 to try and reclaim the $10.00? Or, would you let it go?” The students all said they’d let it go.

Then she told them, “You have 86,400 seconds every single day. Time is more valuable than money, and once a second passes, it can never be recovered. Every time someone upsets you, it probably took about 10 seconds. Why, then, do we throw away the other 86,390 seconds worrying about it or being upset. We need to start letting little things go.”

Don’t let the haters and detractors rob you of the joy you have in Christ. Learn to let it go and turn to the Lord for healing and strength. Life is so worth it!

I’m Chris

Welcome to Flourishing Life, a space designed to help you pursue the abundant life God offers everyone. Jesus said in John 10:10, “I came that they may have life and have it abundantly” (ESV). I’m convinced God created the world for flourishing human life. However, we’ve all contributed to the brokenness in the world and our own lives. Many don’t even realize a better way is possible. My hope for this blog is that you’ll discover the life God has always intended for you, the ones you love, and the world.
