Is your glass half empty or half full? Neither?
Ann Voskamp notes that When we fixate on the worst in something, we render ourselves incapable of fixing anything.
That rhetorical question asking if your glass half empty or half full? The truth is that the glass is never half empty — or half full.
The truth is the glass is always right full.
You may not be able to picture what you can’t see but only real things fill up space. And the real reality is that your glass is really right full.
It’s the brave who say a prayerful yes, the brave and wise who believe that the faith-filled yes is what heals things.
It’s the brave and free who are the optimists.
And to be an optimist — for a moment, you first have to be a pessimist.
Because sometimes you can only be an optimist when you have a plan for the pessimist in you. So, you play out the law of Worst Case Scenario: What is the worst thing that could possibly happen?
And there aren’t any wolves, trouble, kids, hatred, debts, messes, betrayal, teenagers, disease, lack, hard times, untruths, diagnoses, or disappointment that can possibly separate you from the love of God. Nothing can separate you from Him.
Abundant life versus eternal life — it’s impossible to lose!
You can’t lose.
Beauty and joy are found in every overcoming along the way.Please read more here.
