Being respectful, courteous, kind, mindful and dignified are all ways taught to us as children by our parents. To act them out simply means you are an adult. Being classy is not difficult it just takes practice and humbleness.

So, if you are invited somewhere become familiar with their customs. Know what is expected from you. I would never intentionally disrespect anyone nor, would I condone disrespectful behavior. As Christians this should be second nature to us!

Apply this to all aspects of your life and you can never go wrong. Sadly enough more than less, is this forgotten in our society. If we place God at the head of our lives and make him the focus of it, it becomes painfully clear that his love commands it. Most of us have conformed to this world. We have become rude, outspoken, vulgar and just crass. We say and post things with out thinking that it just may upset someone. We appear half nude and think that it is sexy???

In my most inner being I always wonder:" God is seeing me what does he think about this?"

If we conform to Him and His word these things become trivial, because it is second nature. Whatever forum you may appear we represent him and we are always at our best. Are we not?

Should our outlook not be the if Christ humbled himself to wash the feet of his disciples before the last supper, and he became the servant. What can I do to humble myself and respectfully and with dignity treat my fellow human beings?

 

1. We are challenged every day to start with, ourselves:

 

Countless mornings I open the door to my closet and beneath my breath I utter words of disgust at myself as I can not find what I like in this stuffed closet.

 

2. Spouses challenges our best at our worst:

 

Oh Dear I hope mine is gracious enough to overlook my iniquities

 

3. Children can make your hair curly

 

Not to worry I would not trade you in , but I am grateful for grandparents....

 

4. The drive to work

 

With all other ten thousand people who should have left 10 minutes earlier

 

5. Our Work

 

Deadlines, conferences, Changes

1. Social networks

They are people like you and I, we vary in education, color and creed. But all of us are humans, God made us this way. Be kind if you do not like what they say simply unfriend them

 

7. Commitments outside of that

 

By than I am usually on my last leg, but do not worry because by that time my second wind will kick in......

 

Being respectful, courteous, kind, mindful and dignified are all ways taught to us as children by our parents. To act them out simply means you are an adult. Being classy is not difficult it just takes practice and humbleness.

 

NOW THIS IS A CHALLENGE,  BEING A CHRISTIAN IS NOT EASY BUT, IT CAN BE DONE
