What is in you??

Who are we blaming for the problems, challenges, and opposition that comes against our lives?
I hear many things throughout the day from christians and non-christians that seem to sound very similiar.
"Its all my husband/wifes fault!" "My boss is such a slave driver and is unreasonable!" "If God would just zap that person, all my issues would be solved."

I would expect such statements from non-Christians, but as Christians I think that we have come so use to our old nature responding that we have not trained ouselves to listen to how God responds. Responding according to the new nature and the Spirit is something that we have to cultivate. If we are not spending time in God's presence, in His Word, and in prayer, how can we expect to respond and react like Christ??

If God is Love and He lives in us what does that say about what we are to be? Somebody once said that "ones actions will always follow their beliefs." This statement is similar to Matthew 12:34, " For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks."

What is coming out of you when your squeezed??
