What Is Your Attitude?
by Barbara Philbrook

What is your attitude, how do you feel about life?
Are you thrilled to face each new day or is it filled with strife?

Do you perhaps fit somewhere in-between,
not exactly thrilling yet not someone named mean?

Are others thrilled to see you walk into a room,
or with your presence is there a sudden gloom?

Do others greet you with loving smiles on their face,
or do their eyes suddenly seek a different space?

You know your attitude is completely up to you.
It's you who decides what others see when you come into view.

What you choose to think about, everything you face each day,
determines what attitude to the world you portray.

Positive thinking will improve your attitude.
You'll be loving and kind not angry or rude.

Surrender yourself completely to God above,
and you will start looking on the world with more love.

Upon accepting salvation, Jesus moves in,
then new changes in your attitude begin.

You will find life appears brighter and much easier to face,
once these changes start taking place.

What is your attitude and what does it portray?
Do others see Jesus in you today?
