We have a Christian friend who constantly talks about her problems.
Every single time we talk to her, she tells us how bad things are going in her life and how much she is lacking.
Interestingly, in all the years we've known her and prayed for her, things have only gotten worse. Though she has come to believe in the God of victory, she is not living a victorious life.
How many of us are in this boat?
We have another friend who has experienced many hard things in her life. But ever since this friend gave her life to the Lord some years ago, her attitude has changed completely.
She is grateful, so very grateful for God's salvation and goodness toward her. Though she began her walk with the Lord with nothing, she has been excited at what God has in store for her life and has often spoken in great faith for her future.
We have watched her blossom as God has done amazing things in her life. She is now part of a thriving ministry and the Lord is using her mightily.
It seems clear, yet took us some time to realize that the thoughts we think and the things we say...
