Optimist or Pessimist?
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know love hopes all things. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Ever been around a pessimistic person?
He or she can infect others with their sour disposition. In contrast, think of those who tend to be optimistic. These people can bring joy in the face of adversity. Optimism can be contagious.
Optimists spread enthusiasm for life.
Apostle Paul, the optimist, writes about love in 1 Corinthians 13:7 (ESV):
“Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.”
We all have a choice. Choose to spread hope. The hope believers have in life everlasting is a powerful message that never gets old.
Pause. Think about whom you meet for the first and only time. Then think about those you have known for a while. Be an optimist and share with them the hope that is within you. Seize the opportunity.
