Over the years it has become ever so more important to address how we handle situations that we all have to come across in our lives. Often it is not the actual situation, but how we react to it that becomes more important.
That said, it is a challenge for most of us to react to the bad things of life in a positive manner. When bad things happen, the natural course of things is for us to become angry, sullen or sad and forget that we have a Father that clothes the flowers of the fields and feeds the birds of the air. Smiling when the world is dark around us is a tough challenge. Being positive when negativity is all around us may be one of the hardest things we do.
Take a look around you. Especially if you are one that looks at social media very much, there are a lot of bad things going on for us to dwell on. That list gets compounded if you partake in things like CNN or your local news station. The ever present shadow of doom and gloom are all around, so it is our choice to either live in that shadow, or choose the light.
