I enjoy reading Frank Viola
I particularly enjoyed this recent writing:
This year, I created 6 spiritual affirmations that I read every morning.
These affirmations ground and center me as a kingdom citizen at the start of each day. I even printed out several copies to place in different parts of my home, just to “refresh” my mind in the afternoons and evenings.
They are:
1) Let go of how life ought to be and find joy somewhere in whatever your life currently is.
2) Ruthlessly eliminate all expectations of how your day should be.
3) Receive everything that happens today as passing through God’s sovereign hands before it gets to you.
4) All things that take place today – including the irritations and disappointments — will work together for your good. Romans 8:28 is still in the Bible.
5) You can’t control what others do, but you can control what you do and how you react.
6) Shift the responsibility on God to change the things you cannot. It’s His worry, not yours. 1 Peter 5:7 is still in the Bible.
By the way, Romans 8:28 reads, “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” 1 Peter 5:7: ” Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
I am going to try to review these every day. What about you?
