Recently I spent the day with what I refer to as a “glass half empty person”. It was exhausting. Everything was looked at from a negative perspective. When I left I really had to get a mental shower. The Bible says in Philippians 4:8-9 “Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable — if anything is excellent or praiseworthy — think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me — put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you”.
The only way to change how you see what is going around is to fill yourself up with the Word. What we think on is what we will do and say. The Bible shows us all we can be in God. Through Him “I can do all things”. So it is important to keep those who are close to you “glass half full” people.
People who put you down are speaking against what God is telling you through the Bible. A person who dumps negative thoughts on you is really pulling you away from what God is saying. Keep yourself thinking right by putting in what is right. If you don’t like your attitude or what you are doing- Change what you are allowing to influence you.
If you need a mental shower-don’t wait, get it now. Putting it off only makes it worse. Think on what is right.
