00:00:08,165 --> 00:00:09,405
Speaker 1: Life Audio.

2
00:00:12,205 --> 00:00:14,685
Speaker 2: From the Salvation Army. Welcome to Heartbeat.

3
00:00:16,645 --> 00:00:20,645
Speaker 1: Is there someone at work who just drains you. Maybe

4
00:00:20,645 --> 00:00:23,485
Speaker 1: it's what they talk about, the tension they bring, or

5
00:00:23,525 --> 00:00:25,964
Speaker 1: how hard they are to get along with, and every

6
00:00:26,005 --> 00:00:29,525
Speaker 1: day you feel that pressure building. It's easy to think

7
00:00:29,565 --> 00:00:32,485
Speaker 1: the solution is to correct them, defend yourself, or prove

8
00:00:32,525 --> 00:00:36,405
Speaker 1: a point. But what if your greatest witness isn't your words.

9
00:00:36,805 --> 00:00:39,805
Speaker 1: What if it's your actions. The way you respond with

10
00:00:39,925 --> 00:00:43,964
Speaker 1: patience when it's undeserved, the way you choose kindness instead

11
00:00:43,964 --> 00:00:47,684
Speaker 1: of frustration, the way you stay steady even when they're not.

12
00:00:48,485 --> 00:00:52,885
Speaker 1: That's not weakness, that's Christ in you. Because anyone can react,

13
00:00:53,325 --> 00:00:55,765
Speaker 1: but it takes real strength to reflect Jesus in a

14
00:00:55,765 --> 00:00:59,125
Speaker 1: difficult moment. So if you're walking into that situation today,

15
00:00:59,325 --> 00:01:01,805
Speaker 1: remember this. You may not be able to change them,

16
00:01:02,165 --> 00:01:04,965
Speaker 1: but you can show them what christ like love looks like.
