In an effort to renew our minds and break the curse of negativity, Shelly and I have decided to start a gratitude journal.  Each day we will write down a few things that we are thankful for and then share at the end of the day. This is a good way to create a new habit/way of thinking for us.  We were encouraged to do this as we studied Philippians for the past four weeks.  Such challenging and encouraging content that goes even deeper when you realize the circumstances of the author at the time of conception.  He was in Prison!! That goes to show, perspective is everything.  So, find a way that works for you to renew your mind and refresh your perspective..you will find yourself encouraged and more productive...and don't forget to rejoice in the Lord always, i will say it again, rejoice!!
