Serenity Sunday...week 20



I was looking through some files (for some Sunday inspiration) and found this, written by Dr. Charles Swindoll. Read it, then read it again and then you'll get it. It's in the attitude...honest, it is. Have a wonderful day!


Our ATTITUDE


( Dr. Charles Swindoll)



"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of ATTITUDE on life.

ATTITUDE to me is more important than facts.

ATTITUDE is more important than the past, than education, than money,
than circumstances, than failures, than success, than what other people think or say or do.
ATTITUDE is more important than appearances, giftedness, or skill.

ATTITUDE will make or break a company, a church, or a home.

The remarkable thing is that we have a 'choice' every day
regarding the ATTITUDE we will embrace.

We cannot change our past.
We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way.
We cannot change the inevitable.

The only thing we can do is play the one card God has dealt us - and that's our ATTITUDE.

I'm convinced that life is 10% what happens to me,
and 90% how I react to it, and so it is with you.

We are all in control of but one thing - our ATTITUDE."

  3. Tami, you know the story I wrote about the old house. Go read my daughter's comments about what she sees when she sees one of those old filed houses.
