| Have you read the story of the little engine that could? |
 |
| The story of the train that can because he thinks he can. He thinks he can over and over again. It is a powerful story, but it is also a kid’s book. Here are some things you can think as you chug and chug and think through life. Word Power: This is called word power. If you are a Christian, you can use these word power statements. They are bible verses that are written in a paraphrased first person form. Vision: I praise God for everything. In Christ, I am of extreme value. I have Christ’s authority over all the enemy’s power. Christ’s stripes heal me. God provides for all my needs. God so loved me that he gave. Eternal life is a free gift. Character: I honor Christ with every part of my body. I am a joint heir with Christ. I can endure all things through Christ. I wear the full armor of God. I serve others: I do not expect them to serve me. Skills: I bring every thought captive to the obedience of Christ. I trust and obey God in everything. I fix my thoughts on what is good. I have set my mind on things above. I serve Christ in the workplace. I only think about the good things in others. I live Christ’s live on purpose, not by accident. I hide God’s Word in my heart. Elevating Value: These are powerful statements for someone who follows God. If you do not follow God, you will have to keep following the kid’s book method. I think I can…. I think I can…. Follow God and the Bible and you can elevate the value of whatever you do. |
