Destructive behaviours! Yes your life is a reflection of who you are. You are a living example and should set the president. Live a holy, wholesome, Godly life full of wisdom and knowledge, do not be wrongly influenced and drawn into various temptations and wrong doing. Stand up for your principles and values, one slip up can reflect you in the wrong light and tar your reputation causing others to not trust you. Yes we are not perfect and it is wrong to judge and criticize others and often things can happen out of our control and possibly can not be helped, something unfortunate through no fault of our own or maybe a bad judgement decision. If it can not be helped then it is innocent, though in most cases, be responsible and mature and make wholesome, Godly choices, not risking your character and integrity which will highly impact your reputation. Reputation is ever so important, stick within your boundary lines and do not break barriers. You know where you must draw the line and not go further than that, keep within your limits and keep a balance in life. Once certain rules and principles are broken, it can be hard to get back on track, one can go down a slippery road and succumb to temptations which can continue the cycle becoming habitual. You therefore can end up getting caught up in harmful and wrong actions and behaviours and may have a hard time in breaking the habit. If you are a Christian or someone of faith ask What would Jesus do or however you believe in. This is an indication of if you are making right wholesome decisions. Does the behaviour, attitude or action line up with the word of God? Are you displaying the fruit of the spirit? Are you obeying Gods laws and statues? If not, do you feel convicted or not? Do you know what you have done is wrong and feel no conviction or guilt? If so you would need to question your faith and whether you really are living according to the word of God, following His principles and standards? Are you a true believer? Yes there is forgiveness and none of us are perfect, God does forgive and we must also forgive others, but if you knew what you have done is not right but purposely went ahead with it. You must evaluate this, repent and make a stand not to repeat this behaviour. It really is NOT acceptable if you proclaim to be living a Godly life and purposely continue to live outside of His values without seeking repentance and change
