When hard times come, they are never as hard as they look. That’s important. Hard times are not as hard as they look, unless you are looking in the wrong place, through the wrong eyes, thinking the wrong thoughts, and imitating the wrong people.
At the onset, some problems look absolutely hopeless and insurmountable. But with a little changing of your thinking, they can shrink back to a realistic size.
Wrong thoughts will paint the wrong pictures in your mind. They will tell you things are worse than they are. They will tell you that you don’t have what it takes to succeed in life, or that the right opportunity won’t come to you. But I’m here to tell you, you can succeed!
It does not matter how bad the economy is. People who understand money are not afraid of hard times.
So how do we change our thinking? If we want to live the kind of life God has in mind for us, we must exchange our thoughts for His thoughts. We must lay down the perspectives we have gained through past experiences and instead pick up the wisdom of God—His Word. Through the Word of God we’ll learn what reality is. We’ll learn what is really going on in the world. And we’ll learn His plan for getting through it in victory.
So the answer to every problem is in the Word. Let the Word change your thinking. Remember, times are not as hard as they look when you look from God’s viewpoint!
Much love,
Joseph
