When you get frustrated with someone, what do

When you get frustrated with someone, what do you do?

September 1, 2025

When you get frustrated with someone, what do you do? When you want someone to understand what is going on—but that person does not listen to you, what do you do? When you are in a situation and you know what you are doing is right and true, yet the other person does not have the same standards, what do you do? In life, as believers in God, we are called to a different way of living—we are not to conform to the secular world, we are to be transformed. We are to stay true to what God has called us to do and to be and that sometimes means standing up not only for yourself but God and God’s values as well. Psalm 86:11 says, “Teach me your way, O LORD, I will walk in Your truth…” There is a quote that says, “What consumes your mind controls your life.” this is a true statement. So keep your eyes focus on our LORD—stay in His Word. Let God’s way led your life, not other people. For the only person’s actions you can control are your own! God Bless. Amen.
