There is another way.

Not easy.

Not quick.

Out of this world, in fact, but doable. It is His world, after all.

1. Christ's Way
I can surrender to Jesus. My body will cry out bloody murder against this move cross-ward, but this is what I was designed for. The earth and my human ways are not my home.

2. Christ's Body, Christ's Choice
With Jesus on the throne of my life, my body becomes the primary vessel with which I serve him and those he loves. I make a commitment to be a "little Christ," as Martin Luther would say. I become conscious of the lag time between stimulus and response. It is within this gap that I chose to live, always ready to pause before I respond or react. Little tips from grandmothers long ago become realistic "body-tamers."

"Take a deep breath."

"Count to ten."

"Think."
