The Right Choice

You can learn a lot by observing people who are able to keep themselves in their own zone of peace, happiness, and love.

Peace, happiness, and love aren’t just random feelings; they are a choice. It’s a decision that we have to make by an act of our will. All throughout life, you’re going to have plenty of opportunities to lose your peace, your happiness, your love. We all go through disappointments. We all have times when things don’t go our way. It’s very easy to let the circumstances of life make us sour and dejected until we just go through the motions of day-to-day living. But if you’re going to live in victory, if you’re going to thrive the way God intends, you’ve got to make the decision that you’re going to enjoy your life. You’ve got to choose to be happy in spite of your circumstances, every single day. Today you have that choice. Make the positive, process minded choice to go with peace, happiness and love. You will see that your circumstances may not change, but you certainly will change. Be proactive as you go through the day. Make the decision that no matter what is going on I will stay positive by responding, not reacting. Are you ready to make that choice today?
