"Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification"
Romans 14:19
Real change begins with you! There’s never been a truer statement. If you want change in your relationships, start with you. You are the only one you have total control over. Many of our circumstances and situations revolve around our reactions. In disagreements with our loved ones, we can choose to walk away, discuss it openly or completely stop talking. When our children stress us out, we can decide to yell until we’re blue in the face, spank or calmly explain what we expect of them. When we feel like we have lost ourselves and are not living up to our potential, we can choose to find us again and get back on track or stay right where we are and complain. Remember the choice is always yours.
Choose anger or choose joy
Choose confusion or choose peace
Choose to suffer or choose to survive
Choose fear or choose courage
Choose pain or choose healing
The Choice Is Yours.nnn“It is not only for what we do that we are held responsible, but also for what we do not do.”nn—Jean-Baptiste Poquelin Moliere
