How you see things affects how you will live. God gives you not just the gift of life but also the gift of making your own decisions. He has given you an ample amount of how you will choose to see things. Along the journey, you have been molded to become who you are at the present moment. Your perspectives are affected by your experiences. Seeing things negatively cannot be avoided if you have been through a lot of pain. But the good news is that you can always choose what perspective you will follow. Your situation may not be as good as you expect it to be, but you can still act and choose to do the right thing.

Similarly, how you will start your day will also affect how it will go. Whatever you encounter along the way, you can still choose and act to do good because it is what you decided to do. Doing good things is not really that hard. You are just hesitant because of fear. The fear of not smiling back when you greet them. The fear of being rejected after trying so hard. The fear of not being treated kindly enough like how you did. Fear can be a cause of such acts. That is why you have been trying so hard to protect yourself from such pain. As a result, doing and seeing good in things will really take some time to convince yourself.
However, looking at things in a good way will greatly help you change your perspective. How you see things affects how you handle them and treat yourself. God wants you to be a bit kinder to yourself. To see the blessings instead of problems. To see yourself as more important than anything in this world.
Amen 🙏🙏🙏📖
