"How's your attitude today?"


Okay, let’s say you’re spring cleaning your life. And you want to scrub the floor of your attitude because your attitude determines where you walk daily. And so the day you decide to scrub the floor of your attitude is a rainy day. In fact, it’s a rainy Monday. Now what’s your typical attitude toward a rainy Monday.

But what if your area is experiencing a drought. Now what’s your attitude?

But what if the drought has made the ground hard and the rain is falling so fast that it’s simply running off, no real chance for the ground to absorb it. What’s your attitude now?

Now think about what a child would see on a rainy Monday. Mud puddles to play in. Rivers to stand in and watch the water splash up your legs. Boat races with leaves and twigs. Bathwater for birds. God watering the flowers and grass and trees.

You see what you’re looking for. You hear what you’re listening for. Your attitude decides what you see and hear.

Scrub the floor of your attitude as you listen to life and make a life, not just a living.
