Do Your Part And Change Your Words

"Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence." Helen Keller

So many times, when facing a difficult situation, we believe that, if we just have faith, than we are going to get out of whatever it is that we are in. But you see, the problem is, is that when we believe this, and when it doesn't actually happen, our faith dwindles a little bit. It feels like it's a blow to our relationship with God because we feel like He didn't do what He was supposed to. But that is far from true! You see, God is doing everything that He is supposed to and doing it perfectly! But He is needing us to do our part as well.
So what do I mean by "our part?" What exactly are we supposed to be doing? See, now God, He takes care of a lot, we all know that, and He does everything that we can't do ourselves, but there is something that we are able to do. We are able to control how we think. See, now if you are in a bad situation and God is doing all that He can to get you out of it, and you are trusting in Him to do so, but then you turn around and use doubtful words. You say, "I am never going to get out of this situation." "Why am I even trying?" "It is just impossible." Using these words is not only hurting your spirit, but your words are determining where you situation goes! No matter how hard you trust that God is going to bring you out, if you keep speaking negative words into the situation you are going to be stuck there.
So today, I want you to go out, face your situation and, trusting that God is helping you through, speak positive words into it. Say, "I am going to get out of this situation." "Nothing is impossible when I have God on my side." And "I can do this." You will be surprised as to how much your life will turn around when you just change your words.
