Written by the Lead Like Jesus team, an organization founded by Ken Blanchard and Phil Hodges that promotes a transformational leadership model based on following Jesus.
The condition of our hearts is often revealed in unexpected moments. Delays happen, things don’t go our way, change is sprung upon us. What comes out of us at times like these—groans, complaints, and resentment? Or do we take a deep breath and adopt a Christ-like attitude by trusting that God is in control and is at work in all things. Choose to look at life through Jesus’ eyes and receive what He has for you, especially when things don’t appear to be going your way.
Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything [James 1:2-4]
