What positive emotion do you feel most often?

View all responses

Gratitude functions as the master gland of the soul from which all other positive emotions flow. Consider how hard it is to be grateful and sad, or grateful and angry, or grateful and worried at the same time. When the cares of this world start to press me down, I have found praise and thanksgiving are the best cures. This is why gratitude is the positive emotion I cultivate most often. Would you like me to show you how I do it?

I am thankful that I was able to get out of bed early this morning with only a little stiffness. I’m thankful this cup of black coffee. I’m thankful that I arrived last night safe and sound after unexpectedly having to spend nearly the whole day at the airport, and I’m thankful for another day to be able to draw a little closer to the Lord. (Psalm 118:24, 100:4; 1 Thessalonians 5: 16-18; Isaiah 26:3)

How would you describe yourself to someone?

View all responses

There were seven sons of Sceva traveling around casting out evil spirits by calling on the name of Jesus Christ. They said to the evil spirit in this one man, “we adjure you by Jesus Christ who Paul preaches to come out.” The evil spirit answered, “Jesus I know, and Paul I know, but who are you?” Then the man with the evil spirit leaped on the seven of them and gave them the mother of all beatdowns. That one man beat the seven of them so badly that they ran from the house wounded, bleeding, and naked! Read the account for yourself (Acts 19:11-17).

Who am I? Just a soldier in the Army of Jesus Christ.
