Welcome to Tuesday’s Trench Truth, and Invitation, too @
Coffee Hour with Chicklit Power and Trench Classes United. Come on in for what
I hope will be an eye-opening truth for you!
If I were to ask you, what is the difference between
responding and reacting, what would you say? It’s kind of thought provoking
when you apply this principle to your personal interpersonal communications
with others.
To react means we jump forward…without any thought or
prayer, and to respond is to step back, put some thought and/or prayer into the
situation and determine if you even need to respond.
Would you say you’re a reactor or a responder?
What about when it comes to life’s challenges and/or hurts;
do you react or respond to them? Do we step back and invite Him into the
situation or challenge, or do we move forward without any thought, prayer or
planning? I don’t know about you, but my old propensity was to jump forward
without prayer and planning, and usually that was followed by a mistake or
regret!
What would it take to change from reactor to responder? For
me, it’s been a change of one thing first: putting Him first, first thing in
the morning, getting to know Him, His character, His principles and promises.
He has turned me into a responder and He can do the same for you!
