17 Jul I Can! ~Developing a “whatever it takes attitude”! Part 7

Last week we jumped back into our series.

Today, let’s review… 10 Keys to Kindling an “I Can” Attitude

1. Reject an “I can’t” attitude (Mark 2:4).

2. Take the bull by the horns (Phil. 3:12).

3. Enter the “No Moan Zone” (Phil. 2:14).

4. Empathize don’t criticize (Ezek. 3:15).

5. Fan the flame of your passion (II Tim. 1:6).

6. Go the second mile…over and over again (Matt. 5:41).

7. Quit stewing and start doing (James 1:22).

This week let’s continue with…

8. Respond well to change (Ps. 55:19).

Here the Bible tells us, “God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abides of old. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.” If there is one thing that never changes in life…it is the fact that we must change. Isn’t it interesting that the God Who never changes (see Hebrews 13:8) wants us to change! Please don’t mistake me, I do not mean change for change sake. That’s like being different for different sake…it’s just a polite way of saying rebellion. I am however, talking about God-given change. When we moved from Knoxville to Mt. Juliet 15 years ago, there was significant change and as a result, significant growth. When we moved from our old building to our new building there was significant change and as a result, significant growth! Remember this: The road to growth always travels through the city of change. Remember also: God-given change is simply creating better “normals”.
