AN EXTRA WEEK –  (Day 3 of 6)

These are our concepts to consider and practice.

THINK POSITIVE – focus on the good stuff.
BE THERE – when the hard times hit.
BE LOYAL – stand strong with your spouse.
GROW IN STABILITY – major on understanding and knowledge.

I’m stuck on “thinking positive” for another day. I realized that my focus on hurricane Helena aftermath and political happenings are not particularly positive. While I want to know what is going on (and will watch some), I could use a little less of that and more time spent on that which is true, honorable, just, pure, lovely, commendable, and excellent (Phil 4:8).

It’s really hard to be around folks who routinely spout negative talk. I want to be one of those folks you enjoy being around because of gracious and uplifting speech. Positive in, positive out.

Where will you focus your attention and practice today? What did you learn in yesterday’s practice? Can you spend a little quiet time today and talk to God about a particular concept and how it could play out in your life and marriage?

I did see one story about Helene-help that was truly sweet. West End Bakery is baking up a storm and feeding Asheville folks for free.
