You can have self-control of your attitude

“Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men.” (Phil. 2:5-8)

Self-control of your attitude, i.e. the way you think and feel about someone or something.

God did not create us to be robots but instead gave us self-control. “For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control." (2 Tim. 1:7).  Galatians chapter five tells us that one of the nine fruits of the spirit is self-control. Over the next few days, I will discuss a number of things that God gave us the ability to control.

Thomas Jefferson said, “Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.”

Bible Instructions about attitude

“Makemy joy complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one purpose. Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others. Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. Being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.” (Phil. 2:2-8)
