Good Saturday Morning,

People are great, aren't they? Until they become difficult! Do you know any difficult people? Don't put my name down. There are difficult people in life.

The question is---How do I respond to a difficult person?  

 Prov. 16:21...

"A wise mature person is known for his understanding. The more pleasant his words, the more persuasive he is."

There are a lot of difficult people in the world and in our family and our circle. I don't know the list you have but I have my own list of them.

Let me share a few ways to address such people. NO VIOLENCE PLEASE!!!!

In any relationship, how you use your words are powerful. Be careful and gentle in your communication with that difficult person. Oftentimes the way you say something determines the way it's received. If you are offensive, do not wonder why others are offended. As hard as this is---Let Love consider your words. Love is tactful, you may not always be. Read Eph. 4:31-32.

Here is a thought to think about and you decide what is best---even though God's word is always best.---

---If you want to be below a difficult person, attack him/her. But if you want to respond the way Jesus would, show that person love with the words you say and the way you say them.

Always take the high road, if you do that you will always win out.
