Interesting How Our Mind Works

Have you ever been in a situation where the circumstances seemed to be so dire that you believed that there couldn’t possibly be anything positive to come out of it?  What were your thoughts during this time?
Have you ever experienced a life event where the circumstances seemed too good to be true and you were looking for something to go wrong and it never did?
It is so amazing how the majority of the time when something is positive and working great, many of us tend to seek out something  to go wrong or have that anticipation of something failing which would result in the entire project or event becoming a complete disaster.  It is so interesting how the mind works.  When something is wrong, we tend to accept it, deal with it, and then move forward or dwell on it which is not healthy.  When something is right and going well, we may tend to have this thought in the back of our minds that this is too good to be true and that something is destined to go wrong.

It is very difficult to remove those thoughts in our minds when something seems to be going too well, but we must learn that we are children of the King.  God has promised that He would take care of us no matter what is going on in our lives.  It has taken me some time now to eliminate those little messages in my mind when something is correct and going as planned.  It is just human nature to have a preconceived notion that when things are too good to be true, they just may be and there is no downside in the future.  So interesting how the brain sends those little messages to our subconscious.  Here’s to a beautiful day!!
