I don’t know about you, but I am so tired of the catch phrase “It Is what It Is.” It seems like I hear somebody saying that everyday, and the phrase points toward a defeatist attitude. No, it is not what it is! If you think it is what it is, fight back until it is what it isn’t. Don’t give up the ship, don’t give up the day, don’t give up thinking about good things. “Whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable…think about such things.” (Philippians 4:8 NIV) Remember: it isn’t what you think it is. Your mind, your emotions are a battlefield. “Set your mind on things above” (Colossians 3:2 NIV) not on “It is what it is.”
