Let’s Kiss Pessimism Goodbye


When you feel lost..

When the pain seems irreversible..

When your heart feels like an empty vacuum..

When relationships remain unrestored..

When a problem gets bigger..

When your burden gets heavier..

When sick and hurting people continue to suffer..

When your prayer seems unheard..

When dreams are still unreachable..

When love doesn’t prevail..

When you feel rejected and isolated..

When your loved ones don’t understand you..

When people give the impression of being selfish and insensitive..

When life seems so hopeless..

..Don’t dare feel defeated and depressed. Remain faithful. Don’t dwell too much on the negative aspects of your life. Leave behind all your worries, sadness and losses in life and focus on the bright and wonderful future you have with God. Stay out of your own little pessimistic world and start believing that everything will turn around. Remember that our thought affects our attitude. Our attitude affects our actions. Moreover, our action affects our future. It’s like a chain reaction. So dare to unpack all those negative thoughts and allow Him to replace it with new, refreshing, motivating and beautiful things. Respond optimistically even though pessimism is trying to invade your mind. Nothing and no one can ever defeat you. Find strength in Him. Find joy in Him. Find hope in Him. If we change our thinking, God will change our lives.

“ Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life which God has promised to those who believe in Him.”

-- James 1:12
