It has been said you can't please everybody but how do you respond?
When you're faced with ridicule or negativity it is hard to stay humble.
You feel violated in some way, and you just want to strike back.
Maybe the attack was in heavy words of rebellion or in discounting your ability. So what do you do?
Review these 3 actions steps on dealing with negativity or criticism.
- Pray over it. Before responding to any criticism, or mean-spirited comments, ask God to reveal your response.
- Respond in love. We are commanded to speak the truth in love, to guard our hearts against those that take offense, yet to walk in peace with everyone. Only by the power of the Holy Spirit can this be done.
- Walk away. Sometimes the only choice you have is to simply walk away. These events are not our fight, leave them to God. Let God be your vindicator. Walking away from actions that can further hurt you or others is sometimes the only course of action.
