What are You Worth?

I read an article recently about Bill Gate's oldest daughter, Jennifer. In the article, she states, "I was born into a huge situation of privilege." I bet! Her dad is the second richest man in the world. I'm sure being the daughter of Bill Gates comes with benefits.

Attitude

I'm convinced that attitude makes the difference in most everything.

Our attitude affects our abilities, our relationships, our mood, our potential for growth and our success. As Toby Mac says, it can make all the difference in how a day goes.

The Apostle Paul wrote in Philippians 2:5, "You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had."

No where in Scripture have I read that Jesus had a crappy attitude. Instead, it says His attitude was one of humility, selflessness, and service to others. He approached each day with an attitude of gratefulness and dependence on His Father. He was steadfast and determined to make a positive difference in others' lives.

How does your attitude compare? Our attitudes are a result of our thoughts and both are controllable. That's why Paul can tell us to make sure our attitude reflects Christ's attitude. He knows we're capable of doing that.
It's important for us to periodically do some attitude checks...keep ourselves in line with the attitude of Christ. It will make all of the difference!
