How to Avoid Drama: 1 Step

Drama and scandals keep life exciting and are an unavoidable part of life. Or at least that’s what the world would have you believe. But, did you know that with one virtue you can diffuse most sources and avoid drama? Yes, sometimes drama finds you regardless of what you are doing. However, there is something that you can do about a lot of what comes your way. You are not a victim.

​​

Walk in INTEGRITY daily and that one step will dramatically change your life. It is possible to avoid Drama in many cases.

Chew on this excerpt from my most recent book, Kingdom 101, A Daily Handbook for Saints. Take a moment to grab your Bible or switch tabs online and find the scriptures and see what a difference a few moments will make.

Jesus blew the religious people of the day away when He took integrity a step further than even they had taken it. They thought that behavior was enough. Many still believe that way today. However, you and I as believers are called to a higher standard.

Integrity isn’t only what you do when no one is looking or keeping your word, but goes as far as what you think or how you feel and what words you think when no one is looking. Of course, our merciful Heavenly Father is always looking. You may feel like your ship is sunk then. Thank goodness, He Himself made a way for our hearts and thoughts to be renewed to how He thinks.

Matthew 15:18

But those things which proceed out of the mouth come from the ________, and they defile a man.

Psalm 41:12

As for me, You uphold me in my ____________ And set me before Your face forever.

Psalm 25:19-21

Consider my enemies, for they are many, And they hate me with cruel hatred. Keep my soul, and _____________ me; Let me not be ashamed, for I put my trust in You. Let integrity and uprightness ______________ me, For I wait for You.

Name 2 times you have clearly seen integrity in others.

Pray Aloud

Father, You promise to take care of us when we walk in integrity. I ask You to cause my heart to desire integrity more and more. I know it may cost me, but I trust You to uphold me and bless me when I walk in Your ways. Thank You for changing me and encouraging me every day.
