Proverbs 16:24 KJV

This week be the week of positive words and uplifting praises. I issue you a challenge: For the next 7 days to speak nothing that is negative only that which is positive and see what a difference your week is when you do. You will wish you had done so all along. Start the day on the right note and end it on the same note. I want you to do this not just with the things you say but the thoughts you have that are negative override them with positive thoughts. Change the negative into a positive. At first it will be a challenge pending how negative your thoughts can be even the smallest negative is hard to turn. In the end, it will become so easy that when something negative pops in you can push it aside with barely a thought.

Be kind in thought, speech and deed this week. God bless you and your loved ones.
