After the few weeks I’ve had recently, it was good to read the following quote from Joyce Meyer:
Be yourself and don’t let how other people treat you dictate your behaviour
We are only human, and as such we let ourselves be influenced and affected by what others say or do to us, or about us. I am as guilty as the next person of taking things that others say/do far too personally, so I know I have to take the above quote to heart, and learn not to take things too personally, or let them affect me adversely.
So let’s be who and what God wants us to be, and let’s not get side-tracked by what others say or do, because if we keep God at the centre of all we do, we will stay strong.
