"Positive Attitude at Work..."
Proverbs 15:15-17
The Passion Translation
15 Everything seems to go wrong when you feel weak and depressed. But when you choose to be cheerful, every day will bring you more and more joy and fullness.
An “evil foreboding” is a vague, threatening feeling that something bad is going to happen Maybe you have these feelings as well. You have circumstances that are very difficult, but even when you don’t you are still miserable because your thoughts are poisoning your outlook and robbing you of the ability to enjoy life and see good days. Proverbs 15:15 promises you that these feelings need not remain.
Faith’s attitude is one of leaning on God, trusting and being confident in Him—it is joyful feasting on the expectancy of good. Rather than dreading something by anticipating that it will make you miserable, you can have faith that God will give you the power to enjoy it.
Your joy, peace, righteousness, and power are on the inside of you through the presence of the Holy Spirit. Don’t let worry and anxiety rule in your life any longer. Expect God’s help, blessing, and power in all that you do. With the proper attitude, you can be energized to do mundane, everyday tasks with great joy.
