Prov 12:25 Anxiety weighs down the heart of a man, but a good word cheers it up. Prov 18:21 The power of the tongue is life & death; those who love to talk will eat what it produces. Phil 4:8 Now, dear brothers & sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, & honorable, & right, & pure, & lovely, & admirable. Think about things that are excellent & worthy of praise. — Positive thoughts, & positive words are critical to the heart. Renewing our minds in a positive environment will certainly impact our lives everyday. —Prov 15:13 A joyful heart makes a cheerful countenance, but sorrow of the heart crushes the spirit. —Spending time smiling, laughing, thinking positively, believing the best, while being spiritually prepared for life’s troubles improves your chances of giving thanks in all things.
