Responding Appropriately

You have the ability to respond to an event in the manner you deem appropriate. Your response is totally your choice.

Many people feel as if they have ‘one up’ someone when they feel they have been done wrong. Pride will make you do things in reaction that are not right. We cut people out of our lives because of pride. We feel like we have the right do so. Opportunity does not equal right. A champion does not react, instead a champion responds. The response of a champion is appropriate to the situation. Decide before you ever face the situation that you will take the high road. You will do what is right no matter what has been done to you. Have I always responded in the right way? Lord, no!! I have reacted and done the wrong thing more times than I like to admit. However, that doesn’t mean we can’t start right now and do what is right. Make a stand to make a difference today. When faced with a difficult situation, respond like a champion and do what is right and appropriate. How are you responding today?
