Your Take On Bad Days

1.
Your take on bad days should be that there are none. There are times when every possible outcome looks bad. And, everything feels bad too. Yes, we are all tempted to say, when it looks like, smells like and feels like a bad day it’s the worst day ever, but we shouldn't.

When you experience such a day, remind yourself that your senses are betraying you. Know that you are well because His stripes have deemed you so. Intentionally make a decision to shine in His glory.

How you act is not up to what occurs. It’s up to you! You may not be able to control what happens, but you can control how you react to it. Make an effort to smile when you would rather frown. Be nicer because it’s more likely that you will yell. Stay mindful and don’t let a set of circumstances dictate how you will be during the day. Choose to make things better instead of worse.

Show love every chance you get, especially when you’re not feeling it. The truth is you’re always loved. If you allow yourself to flip the negative, eventually, your take on bad days will change.
