Lead like Jesus: Be the Example is not just a title, it's a lifestyle. Every day we have an opportunity to respond like Him. It is so easy to respond like the world, but we have to ask God to help guide our decisions, and gird our reactions to injustices that we face. Of course we are human, but we have the power to win in every situation. For this is not a physical battle that we fight, but a spiritual one that requires that our faith be anchored in the Lord, and our hope be rooted in His word! We are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus even when we face challenges that come to sway our faith. Yet, if we hold on and stay the course, God will make our enemies our footstool... not for us to gloat but for us to rejoice that God is still and always will be in FULL CONTROL! Don't fret...God has not failed us yet!! Be Encouraged!

If we are going to show some sign, we must make sure our talk and walk aligns! Listen, the fruit of the spirit should be evident in all of our lives. Galatians 5:22 tells us "the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law". Even though we all possess some character flaws, we can allow God to create a "change in us" to help us develop positive character traits. The goal is to be better today than you were yesterday. Our faith walk is a daily journey. We have to deny our flesh daily, and allow God to work on the inside of us so that the evidence can be produce to others.

God often uses isolation to prepares us for our greater. Sometimes, isolation is used to prepare us for elevation, transform us through self-reflection, inspire us to develop a deeper personal relationship with Christ, and to instruct us on something that is beneficial in our lives away from all the chatter of the world. Either way, embrace the journey, God never allows anything that he hasn't already paved the way for us to endure. His plan for our lives is flawless because He has carefully crafted every area, expectation, and purpose for us individually. And because He is faithful, we have no reason to doubt that even in the midst of the storm, He promised that we will be more than conquerors in Christ.
