When the unexpected happens, what do you do?

I tend to think that what has been truly cultivated deep within ourselves, will most certainly reveal itself when we collide with the unexpected. People will know you and me … deeply… by how we respond to the things that knock us off of our path and plans.

Do you panic? Do you curse? Do you calmly ignore the facts? Do you punch walls? Do you strategize? Do you see the silver lining? Do you see it as part of a bigger plan?

I think we are all capable of any of these reactions. Our responses will improve when we intentionally choose to cultivate our hearts with God’s priorities and promises for our lives.

How can you intentionally prepare your response now for your next catastrophe or unexpected glitch?
