It can be tough to react God's way every time in a tough situation. Like always being nice to your annoying brother/sister, or always responding with grace when people put you down. Sometimes it would feel so good to just explode! But take a lesson from Moses: You'll pay for it when you do it your way instead of God's. Moses' whole future changed with his decision to strike the rock in anger rather than speak to it as God instructed. The cost of your decisions might be a broken relationship or a damaged reputation. Whatever it is, it's not worth it. Numbers 20:12 But the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, "Because you did not trust in me enough to honor me as holy in the sight of the Israelites, you will not bring this community into the land I give them."
