Don't Take Possesion Of Negatives In Our Lives

I am fortunate enough to teach a Bible Class on Sunday mornings at our church here in Orlando. During our discussion yesterday a cancer survivor passed this along. She said that she has studied a lot about how God has wired us and how we think, and the remarkable ways in which our minds work. She said that as she has battled the tough situations in her life she has worked to maintain a positive approach to everything. She said that she has learned not to take possession of those negatives. While she may have cancer in her body, it is not hers. While there may be negative thoughts going through her mind, they are not her negative thoughts. I haven't done justice to how she delivered that to us in class, I hope that the message gets across.
