“Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ
Jesus:”
Philippians 2:5 (NIV)
How we act
and react to the people and events that enter our lives should reflect Jesus . We have to shed ourselves of ‘us’ and take on
His way of dealing with events, even if tend to upset us.
I had a
worry growing in my mind. This concern dealt with my husband of 41 years. When
I went to do business at my bank and mail some letters, mostly bills. I decided
to go on over to the church office and take care of something there.
As I
finished the actual business there, I shared with one of the secretaries what I
had heard from Hubby. As I shared with her, I told her that several years ago a
friend his had problems of the same kind. But I couldn’t finish the thought.
She understood. I felt better after I talked to her. She showed compassion.
Shouldn’t
we emulate Jesus when people approach
us, seeking help of whatever kind?
