The way life works, whether we like it or not, is that upsetting things happen to us.  Our reactions tell far more about our hearts than do our actions.  We can plan for our actions, but our reactions are simply a release of what’s stored up inside us.  When the bucket is turned upside down, whatever is on the inside is going to come out.  Whether it’s full of gold or dirt, it’s coming out.  That’s why it’s real important to make sure you are daily putting good things in your bucket.  Reputation and testimony can be severely damaged very quickly if you have the wrong thing in your bucket.  The Psalmist said, “Thy word have I hid in my heart, that I might not sin against God.”
