Do You Believe the World Is a Pretty Good Place?

It’s important to celebrate and give thanks for each new day since some facet of it could prove to be meaningful and purposeful. It’s true that everything in the world is not good or beneficial, yet you still can have an attitude of optimism. How difficult is that for you ?

Ben Franklin wrote, “Taking all things together, the world is a pretty good place, and it’s our duty to make the best of it by being optimistic.” If you’re in a rut with life, have you lost the willingness to be appreciative that today is a new day and there is hope for the future?


Begin this moment to focus on one thing for which you can be thankful and then determine not to lose sight of it. Situations eventually change, and as you wait, the Holy Spirit will provide strength to endure whatever trouble or hardships you may encounter. God will take care of you, so praise him and give thanks for the gift of Jesus, your Savior, Redeemer, and Friend. Tell one other person what God has provided for you today.

The Lord has done this, and it is amazing to us. This day belongs to the Lord! Let us celebrate and be glad today.
