I was on Facebook last night and went to my pastor’s (A.R. Bernard) Fan Page and saw this note about not being a victim. It is very inspirational. So I am here to share his thoughts and teachings with you all. Hopefully this helps someone!
Words and Teachings of Pastor AR Bernard:
Do everything readily and cheerfully-no bickering, no second-guessing allowed!
Philippians 2:14 MSG
” Happiness is a choice-it depends on how you interpret life. To be happy, you must learn to interpret the world and its events in a positive fashion. This means that you begin programming yourself to see the good in everything-no matter what happens, no matter what goes down. Then, when you find the good in every situation, you take that good, and you build upon it.
It’s amazing how many people, especially those who portray themselves as “victims,” conclude that the lives they’re experiencing have been chosen for them. But they’re mistaken. In truth, their lives-all of our lives-are composed of our choices…and we become servants to the choices we make.”
Stay Tuned for Pt. 2!
