Living peacefully with people depends upon genuine concern for the other person. Look for ways to help him or her and to encourage and to bless. You’d be surprised how things improve.
God has built surrender into your bones. You will always give up to something or somebody. The secret of inner strength is to give up to the Lord Jesus.
If you want to escape the domination of desires that would get the upper hand in your life and control you, you simply have to make up your mind that you’re going to give in to somebody else.
Let humility and dependence on God be the only way you can succeed at life. God resists those that don’t need Him and gives grace and help to those who are humble. Real humility involves turning over every area to God.
