How do we react when we are having a bad day?

“Bad days”, we all have them. Sometimes they come in bunches.  Sometimes they come seldom, thank goodness. Sometimes we get swarmed with them and then we don’t have another one for months. Personally I like the seldom category.  However, we have no control when we are hit with a bad day. What we do have control of is “how” we react to them.
That’s my next question, how do we react?  Do we carry on and make a scene, or make ourselves look foolish? Or perhaps we keep it bottled up inside and let it torment us all the more. We all have our own pressure points. What may hit my pressure points  may be trivial to you and vice versa.
Either way, we all get bothered at times. Therefore we must learn to deal with these times and be overcomers. We have the power and strength through our Lord Jesus Christ to be overcomers.  He fills us with His peace and comfort. He has already fought these battles for us. Therefore we can have the victory.
A lot of the outcome depends on our attitudes. Do we truly trust in the power Jesus has, and the strength He has given us? Do we sit and pout about the bad day we had? Do we go on social media and write an essay describing our bad day?  Or do we stand tall, and declare victory in the name of Jesus, giving all of our troubles to Him, allowing Him to help us be strong?
What describes a bad day? It may be financial. It may be relationships. It may be work situations. Or it may be your health. No matter what defines your day, it is not more powerful, or stronger than our Lord Jesus.
I want to encourage you, faithful readers, make a decision to join me, let’s do our best to be victorious.  Let’s stand tall.
Trust me, I know it can be very hard. But we have to push through that barrier with all we have. Yes, Jesus already won, but He wants us to get up and be proactive.
I pray that you are encouraged to stand your ground.  I pray that Jesus fills you with His power and strength. I know He is here with us all and cross s that victory line with us.  Amen!

The Peace of God

 What does it mean to have the peace of God, in our minds, hearts, spirits?   That is a loaded question.  I like to think of it as being uni...
