THINK BIG and believe God for favor! We should never retreat in the face of difficulties, advance as conditions permit, and if those conditions don’t permit, try and create those conditions. You could be soaring with eagles.

When God measures a person He always puts the tape around their heart, not their head.  God is cheering you on toward the completion of your assignment. The reason for discouragement might be that more time is given to critics than to those who believe in you.

One of the greatest discoveries of our generation is that human beings can alter their lives by shifting their state of mind. There is no “wrong side of the bed.” We simply get up on the “wrong side of our mind.” When one door closes and another opens we often look so long and so regretfully on the closed door that we don’t see the one that has opened for us!

Make necessary adjustments and you can shorten the distance to a miracle. Decide that the future will be different than today.  YOU ARE A DECISION AWAY FROM SOARING WITH EAGLES!

It has been said that an optimist sees an opportunity in every calamity; a pessimist sees a calamity in every opportunity. I am aware that life’s battles don’t always go to the stronger or faster person, but sooner or later, the man who wins is the man who thinks he can. Attitude is important. A bad attitude can sabotage a person at the brink of a breakthrough.

Life is filled with challenges. There is always something, or someone, to overcome. The Bible says we overcome by the “blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony.” The “word of our testimony” is a direct revelation of an attitude about life, people, and circumstances. A bad attitude reveals an entire life filled with bitterness and resentment.

Your testimony is a description of how evidence that surrounds a condition is viewed. An appraisal of the circumstance is also revealed by words.  Since “appraisal” has to do with value, your testimony is placing a value on the circumstances.  All this has its roots in ATTITUDE!

This present difficulty can be lifted with an attitude adjustment. Remember, “Quitting is a permanent solution to a temporary problem!”
