“Are you a puppet?”
That’s what I heard my pastor ask all of us at church on Saturday.
The big take away was… Do people control you, or do YOU control you?
The way we treat people shows a lot about ourselves, and so does the way we react to a situation.
Thats exactly why people who’ve been hurt, tend to hurt others.
Has anyone ever hurt you before?
How did you feel?
How did you react to that?
Did you do something to hurt them back, or to hurt someone else you know?
If not dealt with correctly, The hurt we feel can turn into a vicious cycle of chaos and disfunction.
This is your challenge…
If someone says or does something that hurts you, I want you to ask yourself,
“Am I a puppet?”
Focus on how you respond to them, how you treat yourself and how you treat others.
Happy Tuesday!
