"What are you a part of—the problem or the solution?"

Do you allow all of the bad news about the economy to paralyze your thinking? It’s easy to do, isn’t it? But you can choose a better way to listen to life and make a life and a living.

A golf course closed, causing home values to drop at least one-third. Most of the home owners were wringing their hands, wondering, "What are we going to do about our losses?"

But then one man refused to give in to the bad news. Instead, he had an idea. He searched for and found grants that when combined with the community’s association fees would make it possible for the city to take over and run the course as a municipal course—the only one in the area. Property values will come back up. The city gets an asset. Golfers get to play. Everyone wins!

Bad news brings barriers. You can stay stuck in a problem if you choose to just focus on it. Inspiration sees past barriers to solutions and finds a way to solve problems. So what are you a part of—the problem or the solution?

Ask God to inspire you with solutions as you listen to life today.
