Look for the good (even when life is hard)

I read about a psychology experiment. Some of the participants were sad. Others were happy. The entire group was asked to descramble messages. There were a variety of phrases which could be made.

The people who were already sad created more sad messages, even though happier ones were possible. And people who were already happy created more happy messages, even though sadder ones were possible.

This short podcast is to encourage you to look for the good, even when life seems hard, and to uncover reasons to be thankful, even when you don’t feel that way.

If things are hard or dreary, know that your current chapter isn’t your only chapter, and it certainly isn’t the last chapter.

“Though the fig tree should not blossom… yet I will rejoice in the Lord” (Habakkuk 3: 17,18).

Enjoy!
