Micah 7:8
Do not rejoice over me, O my enemy.
When I fall, I will arise;
when I sit in darkness,
the LORD will be a light to me.
Prophet Micah opens the chapter with sorrow and desperation, but along the way ,he switches to both present and future tense where he presents hope .He informs his enemy that he may fall today or even in the near future .But the strength of his mind is evident ,I will not dwell down, but i will definitely rise.
Science says that keeping a positive attitude is good for your health. But the benefits of positivity go beyond physical health. It changes your perspective in life which, in turn, affects your disposition, how you treat others, and how you react to circumstances.
But what many people don’t realize is that a positive attitude is also a sign of our faith in God. When you trust God, nothing can scare you . No matter how dire the situation may seem, you will always see the silver lining because you know that He will always have your back .
When you believe in Him, you won’t entertain negative thoughts. Doubts and insecurities won’t have any opportunity to fester. A positive person knows that God has a bigger plan for every loss, every trial, and every sorrow. That’s why, in the Bible, verses about positive thinking abound .( Lay Cistercian )
