If you search for good, you will find favor; but if you search for evil, it will find you! Proverbs 11:27 (NLT) I’m Optimistic Because . . . 1. My sins are forgiven. There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death. Romans 8:1-2 (NIV) 2. My future victory is greater than my present pain. I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. Romans 8:18 (NIV) 3. My mind is filled with the peace of God. If people’s thinking is controlled by the sinful self, there is death. But if their thinking is controlled by the Spirit, there is life and peace. Romans 8:6 (NCV) 4. If God is for me, who can be against me? If God is for us, who can be against us? Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. Romans 8:31B, 33 (NIV) 5. God’s Spirit helps me in my weakness.
