The attitude of our country has been tarnished. We have exhibited in every way all the frustrations of living on this earth. How do we deal with careless drivers, we curse them out and hunt them down. We teach our childern to take charge, get to the top by any means necessary. Our reaction to things that happen to us can get us in a tremendous amount of trouble. As God watches our every move, He's not happy with the choices we make. Choosing to be angry or rude doesn't help your situation. We all are guilty of getting angry about something, but it is what we do with that anger that counts. Our attitudes should exhibit a mind of Christ. No matter what this world throws our way, we must not react the same way a non-Christian would react. The people of this world are watching and God is watching. Everytime we act in an unbecoming manner we undermine the teachings of Jesus Christ. Our savior, suffered more than we ever shall suffer and he never reacted in a poor way. Our attitudes should be positive and full of hope. We must reconcile our anger with God, allowing Him to fight for us. We should always see the Lords' will in every situation, remembering that it all had to be approved by God. When our attitudes reflect the love and faith we have, we can get more accomplished. Positive things happen when we allow our Heavenly Father handle our burdens. Everyday is a blessed day when you allow the life of Jesus, to influence your daily attitude.
Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.
Phil. 2:5-7
