And let me know how it goes for you https://revtrev.link/mystory I would so appreciate hearing your stories.

But if you are a Christian…

The Bible doesn’t give us the option to give up negativity. You are not your own, you have been bought with a price. You belong to God.

The Bible tells me to Be Thankful. Colossians 3:15 “Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.”
The Bible tells me I need to Be Mindful. To be present and aware of His Presence. In 1 Corinthians 16:13 it says “Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.”
The Bible tells me to Be Kind. Ephesians 4:32 says “Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.”

Since 2006

Since 2006 I’ve helped over 10,000 Christians give up negativity in their thoughts, words and actions. For the past several years we would give up negativity over Lent. Lent is 40 days—not counting weekends—from Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday. When we count weekends, the number of days is 47.

In 2024 I did my first 70-Day Gratitude Challenge and realized…this was how to practically allow Holy Spirit to transform us more and more into the image of the Son. That got me on the path of creating the Live LIGHT 47-Day Gratitude Challenge.

Over the years I have developed a lot of resources and tools and even the Live LIGHT Above the Negativity Course to help you move from being easily regularly frustrated, usually feeling busy, often afraid or easily angered TO having peace at all times and in every situation.
