A couple days ago I was driving to see a client only a few miles from home and realized that since I'd left home I'd verbalized, out loud, at least 5 things that "bug" me. And I was alone. Such minor things that right now I can't remember them but at the time I felt the need to say them out loud.
I stopped in the store parking lot and told God I won't do that any more. I will stop verbalizing the things that "bug" me. I won't roll my eyes, sigh or shake my head. I know this won't be easy and I'll have to catch myself sometimes but I will ask God for help and I remind myself I can do everything through Christ who strengthens me. (Philippians 4:13)
And this will include not talking with others about the things that bug them or complaining about the world we live in, the country I live in, etc., with others. When the conversation takes that turn I will either change topics or excuse myself, politely. I am no longer focusing on what I don't like but only that which is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent and praiseworthy (Philippians 4:8)
Who out there wants to take this vow with me? We will spread no more negativity only love.
God Bless you all!
