Attitude Adjustment

When life starts getting crazy, do you start getting even crazier? When you're faced with a crisis, do you shift into crisis mode? When situations start to spiral out of control, does your behavior get out of control? Your behavior should be determined by your relationship with God, not by your outward circumstances. The degree to whic you respond with calmness and confidence is a measure of your trust in God. How much do you trust him? If your answer is "Not nearly enough," the solution is found in keeping your mind steadfastly focused on the goodness of God.
