In a time of crisis, do you react…or respond? The former wouldn’t be the best and the latter would be far better.  When I think of the word “react,” its like a loose cannon with an uncontrolled explosion of sorts.  When I think of a “response,” it would be something prayerfully considered that would honor God and display complete trust in the Lord…godly character.

 

Titus 2:11-14

11 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. 12 It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, 13 while we wait for the blessed hope–the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 14 who gave Himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for Himself a people that are His very own, eager to do what is good.

 

“Character is not made in a crisis — it is only exhibited.” ~ Robert Freeman
