“Ten Refusals
for Your Perusal"
by Steve Currington
1. I will not expect anyone to intentionally
please me unless their best interest, they can see. That's
His Love!

2. I will not allow bad news to affect my
good views. That's His Joy!
(Fleshly, Self-Righteous Alternative: Frustration)
3. I will not be concerned over lessons
God wants me to learn. That's His Peace!
(Fleshly, Self-Righteous Alternative: Worry)
4. I will not get upset when my expectations
are not met. That's His Longsuffering!
(Fleshly, Self-Righteous Alternative: Quick-Tempered)
5. I will not be rude to those who give
me attitude. That's His Gentleness!
(Fleshly, Self-Righteous Alternative: Harshness)
6. I will not withhold benevolence for my
personal convenience. That's His Goodness!
(Fleshly, Self-Righteous Alternative: Meanness)
7. I will not respond in frustration during
trials and tribulations. That's His Faith!
(Fleshly, Self-Righteous Alternative: Doubt)
8. I will not express disdain and will endure
the pain of those who yank my chain. That's His Meekness!
(Fleshly, Self-Righteous Alternative: Discord)

me to lose His control. That's His Temperance!
(Fleshly, Self-Righteous Alternative: Self-Indulgence)
10. I will not allow a work-based hypocrisy
to keep me from Spirit-led transparency. That's the Hidden
Life.
