Self Development

You Are Not Controlled by Someone’s Action

Never allow someone’s action to change the way you see things in life. Remember that you have the freedom to choose. Other people can never control you. Learn to manage your emotions and always put in your heart that God empowered you to take charge of yourself. Sometimes, when we see other people’s actions, we tend to react and feel angry because of their negative behaviors, but know that you have the power to choose peace over bitterness. You can always choose love over hatred. And it will only happen the moment you start to deal with what’s on the inside. You can never change the people around you. That’s why the best thing you can do is focus on what you can handle, and that’s yourself.

God gave you the ability to manage your emotions. He gave you the wisdom on how to handle yourself in such a way that you will longer be easily swayed by what’s happening around you. Listen to His voice because God knows how to deal with it. Never allow other people to control what you feel. When you don’t understand yourself, come to God, and He will remind you of your identity. Empower yourself by learning to manage the things that are going on inside. You will just waste your energy if you keep on focusing on your surroundings. Let the wisdom of God reveal to you the right thing to do.

Increase your self-awareness. Sometimes, when we are too caught up with other people’s actions, we unknowingly react to what we see, and because of that, we fail to recognize the truth behind our emotions. We allowed our surroundings to control what we feel, and that’s why we easily get annoyed with what other people are doing. Try to observe yourself and learn to recognize the pattern behind your emotions. Discover the things that trigger you so that you will not be tempted to do something that you will regret in the end. You will slowly learn to handle yourself as long as you are fully aware of the reason behind your emotions.

Allow God to teach you how to take charge of yourself. He will open your eyes so that you will learn to see the bigger picture. Reacting to something that you can’t control will only disappoint you in the end, so listen to the voice of God, and He will reveal to you great things in life. He will teach you how to manage your negative emotions, and only then will you be empowered to make decisions that are no longer controlled by what you feel.
