My friend has a good attitude.

I don't know how long Linda has had lupus but she has a better outlook than many healthy people. I think she believes the following facts from the Bible:
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." (John 3:16)
"Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved--you and your household." (Acts 16:31)
"Trust in the LORD with all your heart; and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths." (Proverbs 3:5-6)
"For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, works for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory." (2 Corinthians 4:17)
