Don't Pass Your Bad Day to Others


When you are going through a bad day be sure you have taken care of those near you like Jesus on the Cross.



John 19:26-27  (NIV)
26 When Jesus saw his mother there, and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to her, “Woman, here is your son,” 27 and to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” From that time on, this disciple took her into his home.


2 Peter 1:3  (NIV)
His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. 



4 Decisions to keep you from passing your bad day to others.



1. Identify the real problem.


Ephesians 6:12  (NIV)
12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.


2. Avoid the pity party.


1 Peter 5:7  (NIV)
Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.


3. Live a connected life with others.


Acts 10:2 (NIV)
He (Cornelius) and all his family were devout and God-fearing; he gave generously to those in need and prayed to God regularly.




4. Look to Jesus.

Hebrews 12:2 (NIV)

Fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
