We Can't Change People

by Kay Heitsch

We can't change how people treat us or what they say about us. All we can do is change how we react to it. ~ Quotes ~

I read somewhere that no matter how nice we are 10% of people won't like us.

We're in good company because not everyone like Jesus either. People like to find fault. Jesus healed a man, which was a good thing. However, his critics said He healed the man on the wrong day. (See Matt. 12:10)

We can take the high road and smile and be nice anyway. We can turn the situation over to the Lord and He will defend us (see Jeremiah 51) and He will fight the battle for us. (see 2 Chronicles 20)

We can't change people, but we can change how we react to them.
