So, I'm reading this book. It is about seeing the world differently. It's Love Life and See Good Days
It's an amazing book, definitely check it out. But there's a point the author makes. That everyone always says "Have a good day". But what are supposed to take from that. It's like we HAVE to have a good day. There's no bad in it whatsoever. That's not true.
The author states to instead, "See a good day." Now, I love that!
It makes me think about the quote, "Everything happens for a reason." And it does. Something bad may happen today, but tomorrow, it can result in something good.
Someone may lose their job today, but they may be able to go to school to get a better one.
Someone may get in a car accident today, but they could meet the love of their life in the hospital tomorrow.
It's all in the way you see things. Heavenly Father has different things happen for different reasons. We need to realize that. He has given us the blessings of the scripture and our prophets to help us through hard times and to help make things better, it's up to us to see it that way.
Another point to make, if something happens in your life, and you read the scriptures, certain scriptures will stand out to you depending on what's going on.
Take Joseph Smith, for example, he was reading in James and read one little scripture, and it changed his entire life. If he wasn't looking for an answer as to which church to join, then the scripture wouldn't stand out to him. So Read the scriptures. Pray. Sing. Rejoice.
That's all for now.
See a good day!
Your sentence, " It's all in the way you see things," is so true. When we see God's hand in our daily lives it can help us get through hard things. We all go through challenging times. I am definitely happier when I am striving to see those small daily miracles.
