Friday Tale ~ The Optimist Creed 

Promise yourself: 

·    To be strong in God so that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.

·    To talk health, happiness, and faith to every person you meet.

·    To make all your friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them.

·    To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.

·    To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to do only the best.

·    To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.

·    To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.

·    To wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile to every living creature you meet. 

·    To give so much time to improving yourself that you have no time to criticize others.

·    To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble. 

·    To live in the faith that God is in control and you have no need to fear.

~ Christian D. Larson, 1912 (Amended) 

Do not fret because of evil doers.... for they will wither quickly like the grass and faint like the green herb. Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness. Delight yourself in the LORD, and He will give you the desires of your heart.
~ Psalm 37:1-4
