Being Positive

My husband and I have been ministering to a couple of friends. Being positive in times of crisis is hard, but when your already not positive even when times aren’t bad then your in for a world of hurt. One of the hardest things are believers is to put our trust in G-d, to know he is still there even with the bumps in the road. There will always been bumps and there will always be challenges. I used to be very negative, didn’t look for the bright side of anything, I wouldn’t say I was depress but I was on the road to becoming depress. I had to find something good, now my personality is one where I always feel the need to intercede for people, I want those around me to have peace and get along well. I have always been a someone who always defending other. My husband and his sister used to not talk, to be honest last year I finally threw my hands up, and said enough is enough your making your own bed to lay in. I got sick of defending her, and trying to help other see things in a different light. I encouraged my husband to forgive his sister but you know sometimes you can only take being walked on so much.
My friends are going through something with one of their friends because on of them is negative much of the time and a couple people have decided they are to negative and pulled others into it. My husband and I sometimes get frustrated with the negativism but we try to be compassionate and encourage him to look at better things. One thing I have learned over the years is being negative and speaking evil into yourself is very powerful. There is something called self prophecy and if your speaking evil or bad in your life then it bound to happen eventually. When I have children this is something I am going to make sure they don’t learn, I will never tell my kids they won’t amount to enough. I will encourage them. I have many friends including myself which have had ill things said to them by loved one and many years later it still affects them I don’t need a degree to understand what going on and that those trains of thoughts need to be change and replace with something else.
I will be honest trust in the L-rd lately has been hard but I know he is there. He will not leave me, and I just have to be open to hearing him. It’s been a struggle being with out a stable job, I shared this with our friends the other day. It seemed to help them see that they were not alone in there struggle, which they are not many people are in this struggle. Now with those few banks collapsing I think more people will feel the pressure of not enough work.
To bad I was a pharmacist maybe I could have created a drug like Zyporex. If I were to be creating drugs I would try to find something to kill cancer with out killing the patient.
