June 15 - Look For the Good Part

Creation is so intricate and has such wisdom. The marigold is designed to not only be strikingly beautiful, but to protect a vegetable garden from aphids. The cactus not only provides food but delights the heart when it bursts into its surprising blooms. A 2-year-old child can bring both the greatest of frustration and the happiest of pleasure. There is more happening in your situation than you are seeing right now. Look for the good part.

Philippians 4:8 - I'd say you'll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious––the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse. (The Message)
