Discovered the above "encouragement" in a song book this weekend while at a ladies retreat.
It was titled - "God has a Positive Answer to Everything."
My Response to the Title- "Ugh!"
Then I read through the content and I thought "true" - however, the title is "modern" packaging to guide towards aligning ourselves with the truth. It is ridiculous to me one needs to "package and sell" the truth.  Why not just say- "Line up with the truth - it ain't easy, it is rarely fun during difficulties; but it is always good." Good trumps easy and fun every time.  Why? Because goodness is the result of rooted truth. The virtue of this encouragement would be better served with a title of say - "Get in Line"or  "Truth Alignment" or anything that doesn't give the impression it's coming from a Gentle Giant
Just sayin.. The True God is a far cry from some New Age-y Goddess who answers positively to everything and everyone.
