I am stuck on the negative impact thing, because I think negativity has more of an impact than people realize, more than anyone will really admit. Lets admit it, if the devil gain serious power from the negative thoughts of people, do you really think that he will allow people to put out much research on the impact of the negative side of it? I really think that it will just be swept under the carpet like so many other things that have such a negative impact in our lives and that we continue to go along with, because that is just how life is. Like choice, we don't have choices, that is how we were raised... There are so many lies that have become so engrained in us, that we are no longer able to fight for the truth anymore, because it is just the easy answers that we look for. The devil made me do it, instead of looking for the truth, we blame others, instead of realizing the reason we did it, was because we made the choice, we became angry, because we allowed the other person to get under our skin, we made the choice to react. The truth is, this is so much more then the negative test, this is so much more then it all, this is life in a nut shell.
Back to my point at hand, if people realized that being negative took years off there life, would they continue to be negative? Yes, probably. If they realized that it gave them bad skin, would they continue to be negative, maybe they would start realizing that the impact of being negative was not just effecting the person they are on the inside, but it starts affecting the person they are on the outside. Can I prove it? No, but look at someone that has spent years being negative, they are starting to be that negative thought they portray, but look at the person that is being the positive thoughts they they portray, they have a light about them, they are different. Why is that? It is because the air they breath is not about the negative, it is about something much richer. I think us as Christians should be living in the positive, because that is where God calls us to walk, but sadly, I don't think that is where people are today, they are lost in themselves, lost in the "I", not the Christ that lives in them. I am not trying to judge, just trying to call back to Him.
Maybe my Mom was right, I am to hard nosed, to straight forward and that is why people don't read this. I am called to be compassionate and loving. I am struggling with all the love talk and I am afraid we are losing site of the truth talk, what is the truth of the gospel. Yes we are to love, but not love the sin, not continue to sin and not live in sin. We can not serve two masters.
They say you can do the test with even store bought fruit, I have not tried it, but I would encourage someone too. Let me know, speak negative to one and positive to the other. See if it matters.
