As I was studying one morning this week,
I read this verse of scripture.....
Philippians 2:5 (NLT)
You must have the same attitude
that Christ Jesus had!!
Since I love acrostics, I thought I would come up with a word for each of the letters in the word ATTITUDE....and find a verse of scripture to go along with it. We should all strive to live up to each of these characteristics in order to have an attitude like Jesus!!!
A - Awareness
Habakkuk 2:14
For as the waters fill the sea,
the earth will be filled with an awareness of the glory of the Lord.
T - Tenderhearted
Ephesians 4:32
Instead, be kind to each other,
tenderhearted, forgiving one another,
just as God through Christ has forgiven you.
tenderhearted, forgiving one another,
just as God through Christ has forgiven you.
T - Thankful
I Thessalonians 5:18
Be thankful in all circumstances,
for this is God's will for you who belongs to Christ Jesus.
I - Inclusive
Job 32:21
I won't play favorites,
or try to flatter anyone.
T - Trustworthy
Proverbs 11:13
A gossip goes around telling secrets,
but those who are trustworthy can keep a confidence.
U - Understanding
Proverbs 16:21
The wise are known for their understanding,
and pleasant words are persuasive.
D - Devoted
I Timothy 2:10
For women who claim to be devoted to God
should make themselves attractive
by the good things they do.
should make themselves attractive
by the good things they do.
E - Endurance
Hebrews 12:1
And let us run with endurance
the race God has set before us.
HOPE you have a great Thursday, Sweet Reader!!!
In His Most Precious Love....and with mine!!!
