Yesterday I was with a group of men and we were talking about cynicism and how destructive it is.
I thought I'd mention it because cynicism dominates so much or our world today.
It's everywhere -- making it so easy to think the worst about people and situations... and disbelieve any good can come out of anything.
But don't let cynicism get a hold of YOU.
Cynicism is like a poisonous drug that makes you hopeless, passive and depressed.
So go after any cynicism you see in your heart...
In a world filled with unbelief, attacking cynicism starts with remembering God is alive and well.
He is active in the world He's made... including you're life and mine.
And as we turn to Him in prayer, He's kind to open our eyes to see His goodness, revive our faith and lead us to take action in love.
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope (Rom.15:13).
