Daily SunShine

So often when we talk about having an attitude of gratitude we make it just about ourselves.How do I feel?(Depression and the fact that gratitude is a cure for it is a whole other topic I am not going to get into today.)The thing with our emotions is that they affect how we treat other people.So not only should we have an attitude of gratitude for ourselves.We should have an attitude of gratitude because it helps us to treat other people better.So because of that...Today I just want to encourage you to have an attitude of gratitude.But it's not just gratitude that affects how you treat others.It's all your emotions.So I also want to encourage you to think about the emotions you have.And how your emotions affect the way you treat others.Well, that is it for this episode of Daily SunShine. If you wondering why I was thinking about gratitude today is because I was reading this book title Holy Resilience. The book is not really on the topic of gratitude, but I came across one piece in the book that talked about gratitude. It was that piece that inspired this episode of Daily SunShine. Gratitude helps us to be resilient. Gratitude can help us to bounce back up when hardships knock us down. The author of that piece does a much better job of explaining all this than I do. On a side note, I contributed two short pieces to the book. You can find a link to purchase the book in the description of this episode. Daily SunShine: Other Products---New Daily SunShine Website: (https://dailysunshinewithncr.weebly.com/). ---Does anyone else find it funny that I said that is all for this episode of daily sunshine in the smack middle of the video? Let me know in the comments. Anyway here's the SunShining verse of the day... Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. - Philippians 2:4---If you are looking for a beautiful place to read study and memorize the Bible.

#DailySunShineThere are many reasons I like Spotify.And today on Daily SunShine I will get to one of those reasons.---But first...If you are looking for a beautiful place to read study and memorize the Bible.Check out...[SunBible](https://the-sunshining.github.io/SunBible/index.html).Available for macOS, Windows and Linux.---Hi...Now you are probably wondering why I am talking about Spotify on a spiritual podcast.Well it is cause I love Spotify so much and I have a spiritual application.I do have this other video series or podcast called tech with Nonresistant where I may talk about Spotify some more sometime in the future.Today I just wanted to share one reason I love Spotify for listening to podcasts.The truth of the matter is that Spotify is not the best place to listen to podcast in 2021.It's surprising that even though it is 2021 it can still be hard to find a good place to listen to podcasts.There are the big platforms like apple podcasts, google podcast, and Spotify podcasts.There are also many smaller podcast streaming platforms like Castbox, RadioPublic, SoundCloud, Breaker, and many more places.There is nothing wrong with any of these podcast streaming platforms and if you are looking for a place to listen to podcast I encourage you to check out some of theses podcast streaming platforms.One of the reasons that I love Spotify is that is cross platform and probably the easiest way to listen to music.When it comes to listening to podcast on the other hand it is a little more different. Most podcast streaming platforms allow you to download and listen to podcasts offline. You can't do that with Spotify unless you have a premium subscription.You ready for it...The reason I love Spotify for listening to podcast or music it because at the end of the year they do this thing called your year wrapped where they summarize your year of listening.I personally really love it.It is almost like hearing a "Well done thou good and faithful servant".I love being able to see my top Artist of the year and see how many minutes or hours I spent listening to podcast.Last year my biggest podcast binge was listening to the work in progress podcast by Andy Mineo.Of course I didn't need Spotify to tell me that.But I can't wait to see my stats for 2021.There are different times I feel like giving up using Spotify for listening to podcasts.(Like right now that is why I am writing this.)But whenever I think about using another application to listen to podcast I think about how at the end of the year Spotify gives you your year stats, and because I love that one feature I am going to stick with Spotify till the end.Let's move on to my spiritual application.Doing good is not easy.Living the Christian life is not easy.There are many things in life that are easier than following Jesus.But let me tell you something.If you don't follow him to the end, you will miss the reward.Here let me share this verse with you...(And maybe things will make more sense.)"And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not." - Galatians 6:9If you would like a poster with that verse on it there will be a link in the description of this episode to my Merch Shop:[Daily SunShine Merch Shop](https://my-store-11528458.creator-spring.com)---Such a good verse.I just want to leave that thought with you today.And I encourage you to think more about what you have read or heard from me here at The SunShining.That is it for this episode of Daily SunShine.By The way Daily SunShine is a podcast available on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts, so be sure to subscribe wherever you listen!

Should we think about tomorrow?There is a verse in the Bible that says we should not think about tomorrow. Actually, there are a few.{Hi, it's me NCR here with some more daily sunshine.}{Today I just wanted to share a few Bible verses with you about thinking about tomorrow.}{Let me read some of them to you.}> "Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof." - Matthew 6:34> "Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain: Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that." - James 4:13-15> "Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth." - Proverbs 27:1I agree wholeheartedly with the Bible that we should not think about tomorrow. Nor should we make big plans for our future here on earth.Instead, we should think about where we will spend eternity.And our thinking about eternity should influence how we live our life here now on earth.Don't live a life here that you will regret for eternity.---Well, that is it for today's sunshine from me here today.I encourage you to go out and start living in God's sunshine.If you would like to get a mug or teacup with that picture and verse on itThere will be a link to my merch shop in the description of this video:[My Christian TeaCup](https://shop.spreadshirt.ca/mychristianteacup/).Also, I am doing a merch giveaway on March 25, 2021.For more details on that, you will have to listen to the SunShine Podcast.And if you are looking for a beautiful place to read study and memorize the Bible.Check out...[SunBible](https://the-sunshining.github.io/SunBible/index.html).Available for macOS windows and Linux.

# Clipping from your life(How to be perfect? - Daily SunShine)So often when I make a mistake in my recording I have to re-record it.But with the power of video editors, I can clip out my mistakes.I can clip and cut and put many different clips together.I think anybody who does video editing would agree with me that no video is perfect.And also, maybe this is just me, but even after I do a lot of video editing the video is still not perfect.Or maybe it's just me that is not pleased with the video.---Hi, my name is N.C.R., and I am here today with some more daily sunshine.I am pretty sure that if you have had any interaction with other people you can agree that people are not perfect.And it's not just other people.It myself, and yourself.We are not perfect.Do you want to be perfect?I'm pretty sure the answer to that question is yes.Don't we all wanna be perfect?The question is how can we be perfect?AndWhy do we want to be perfect?During Jesus's life on this earth, a rich young ruler came to Jesus and asked how he may gain eternal life.Jesus first told the man to keep the commandments. But the man said he had done that since childhood.Finally, Jesus says, and he says it beautiful in Matthew 19:21:> "Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me." - Matthew 19:21Perfection does not come by adding things to yourself like makeup or a costume.Perfection comes by selling all that you have, giving to the poor, and following Jesus.---Well, that is it for today's SunShine from me NCR.I encourage you to go out and live in God's sunshine.Also if you are not a follower of Jesus I encourage you to start following Him now.You will not regret your decision to follow Jesus.And if you are looking for a beautiful place to read study and memorize the Bible.Check out...[SunBible](https://the-sunshining.github.io/SunBible/index.html).Also if you would like to support me I encourage you to check out my merch shop:[My Christian TeaCup](https://shop.spreadshirt.ca/mychristianteacup/).Where you can find TeaCups and Masks with the images I am using right here behind me.Also if you want to connect with me I recommend joining my discord server:(https://discord.gg/RyazvJcdsS).

#DailySunShinesnowy day reality checkIf you heard it once you've heard it many times. You don't get to decide what happens to you. You only get to choose how you react and respond.I recently had a guest on the SunShining podcast, who really loves winter. When asked what he loved about winter he responded, "Whats not to like?"That is a good question. Whats not to like?Why do you not like something?Obviously as humans we have many reasons for liking or not liking things.Or do we?I just want to encourage to take some time today to think about why you like things the way you like things.And about why you don't like things the way you don't like things.---Do you like snow?Do you dislike snow?Do you like or not like snow shoveling?If you like it cool. If you don't like it maybe it's because...?Do you love the cold?Do you hate cold?---Today's Challenge: Try something new today.What? That is not related to today's topic is it?Or is it?---Anyway as part of today's reality check here are some more questions:Are you content with your current reality?What are some things you like or don't like about your current reality?Do you feel stuck by your current reality?Where is your current reality taking you? (Are you sliding downhill in a sled?)Where are you taking your current reality? (Are you walking uphill with a sled?)(Wow, these last two questions are really profound, but my questions in parentheses may not be the best examples.)Did something negative recently happen to affect your current reality?How will you respond?
