   Life in General
I figured today that I'm a little too negative in my prayers.

My prayers always sound a bit like "What is wrong with me?" "Why isn't this happening?" "God, why don't you do anything?" "Where are those promises supposed to be fulfilled?"

As opposed to:

"God, bless this situation" "God, bring your favour on this issue" "Bless others to be used for this" "Thank you for being my provider" "Bless what I recieve to be used for your glory".

This isn't a matter of me not being happy-clappy enough, it's a matter of outlook. If I keep a negative outlook on the things which bother me, is it any wonder that nothing ever seems to get done about them? All I ever reap is the pessimism which I have sown, whereas if I sow happiness into my outlook on these things, then I will reap happiness in the situation.

Believe me, pessimism gets no-one anywhere, and all it ever achieves is to prove itself because you don't allow anything good to happen. Cynicism only ever brings about circumstances to be cynical about.

For god's sake, you have far more important things to do than bog yourself down over your circumstances. All you need to do is sow positive seeds and you will reap positive results. It doesn't mean life will ever be easy, but it does mean you will be a lot happier.
