A Positive Outlook and Expectation
Sermon in Kennewick, Washington. God is a positive being, and we are to look at the positive in our lives. Even in the midst of trials, we can choose to focus on what is good - and there is always something good if we look hard enough. The Bible includes examples of God's servants maintaining a positive focus while in severe trials. There are steps we can take to improve our outlook as well.
