Let the peace that Christ gives
control your thinking.
—Colossians 3:15
A seething attitude is toxic, poisoning from inside out. It contaminates relationships and sabotages happiness, turning life into a mental garbage dump.
Take control of your attitude. Someone hurt your feelings, broke your heart, shattered your dreams. Let it go. However badly you have been treated, and despite how deeply it hurts, put it behind you and move on.
That’s hard to do.
Do it anyway—for your own sake. Until you do, you will spend your days in the pit of anger and self-pity. You’re too good and have too much to offer to let that happen.
Your circumstances may be beyond
your control, but your attitude isn’t.
