Reflection ratio

8/14/2017

Have you been reflecting as Braeden wrote about last week? The hardest part of reflection is knowing what to reflect about. Clearly to reflect, we do not want to dwell on just the negative, otherwise we will begin to fall into self-pity. If we only reflect on the good, then we will not work out our mistakes. So what is the best ratio? The best ratio found in my studies is 3 to 1, which is 3 good to every 1 negative. Anymore either way and we begin to unbalance our mind and emotions. For example, we might reflect 3 times today on how we succeeded in our purpose and calling, while 1 time we might have missed an opportunity. But reflecting on 3 missed and only 1 successful opportunity will mess you up. Today's encouraging word comes from Psalms 19:14, “Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, O LORD, my rock and my Redeemer.”


God bless you and keep you as you go and do life
