Honey bee has a queen bee that feeds them, however if they do not go out and work, they eat not. They must bring the pollen from flowers back to the queen. Their labor brings forth food for their hungry stomachs.
Fruit of one's words should feed one's own soul. One's anger, jealousy, fear and so forth is not so sweet to one's soul. What one feed one's soul with our words like love, hope, faith, goodness, mercy, joy and gentleness brings food to one's soul. To be a pessimist, an old grouch, desire anything because someone else has it, and fear of what lays ahead, only brings disharmony to the soul. It often bitter and not always never sweet.
This month is career month and thoughts of education for many. Yet it is also a time to feed the soul, to energize with positivity, to produce productivity. As a believer some of the proverbs in scripture has a lot of not only wisdom but positivity within to feed the soul. One of my favorits Is found in Proverbs 16:24 Pleasant words are as honeycomb, sweet to the soul and health to the bones.
Honey is an antioxidant and is health for the bones, for it gets rid of bad things that produce health bones. Honey is sweet to the soul and nourish our mental state. How can you be more positive in your thinking. How can you be more positive even in bad situations. How can your words of labor continue through out the year to be words your mouth craves. We all crave sweets, how about sweet words. It work to produce words of sweets even about ourselves. We all are not Mr or Ms positivity. Let see the glass half full and not half empty. Look in the mirror, and find one word that is beneficial to your soul. If all you can say looking in the mirror is you love yourself that is a starting point. To love yourself also means you desire to love others as you love you. Do you love God, can you say I love you Lord. Can you say today I getting out of bed and going to get my list done today. Can you go to work and say I love my work? Begin with love, and end with this is the day the Lord has made let us rejoice and be glad in it. Find the positive things in your world today.
