Pollyanna and Sour Sally

I admit I was a Sour Sally yesterday. It was a low moment after hearing neighboring homes have sale contracts while I’m still waiting.

However, when I woke this morning, I decided to part company with Sour Sally and embrace Pollyanna. I prefer her company. After all, life is sweeter when looking at the positive rather than the negative.  

I’m reading my book, A God for All Seasons, as part of my devotions in the mornings. It’s amazing how God uses my own words to send me encouragement.

This is the meditation I read this morning.

 

Come and See

 

And God said to me, “Come, and you will see.”

John 1:39

 

Come and see how to forgive when forgiveness seems impossible.

Come and see how to trust when there appears to be no hope.

Come and see how to believe, regardless of the scorn from unbelievers.

Come and see how the hard things in life are made softer through faith.

Come and see how beautiful I have made this world and all My creation.

Come and see how often I will carry you, hold you, and kiss your tears.

Come and see, My beloved child, how much I love you.

 

I’m coming, Lord, I'm coming! Amen.
