Let’s face it. We are human beings. And as human beings it is normal for us to react out of emotions. While some actions that are driven by emotions are appropriate for given situations, there are other times we may need to practice self-control and align our attitudes with Christ.
Jesus gives the perfect example in selfless humility. Though He was persecuted by many, Christ never reciprocated the deeds dealt to Him, but rather remained faithful to God’s agenda for His life. Jesus knew His purpose would impact the entire world and any act of selfishness, self-righteousness, or arrogance would dilute His existence and blessing to us. Like Christ, when you regard others as more important than yourself or personal agenda, your attitude will change and so will your actions. Before you react emotionally to events that happen around you or to ones that affect you directly, align your attitude with Christ and watch God change lives through you.
Every action has a reaction
