Paul writes and says, “We appeal to you, brothers and sisters, to respect those who labor among you, and have charge of you in the Lord and admonish you; esteem them very highly in love because of their work.” Now, it sounds like some simple, off the cuff advice from Paul to people not responding well to criticism, but if you think about this topic and start to tease out the depths of the idea you realize this is a matter that has application for every area of our lives and can determine the level of our success and satisfaction.
So let’s consider the importance of learning to handle criticism well. I’ve organized these around three R’s. The first stands for Receive.
Receive Criticism Non-defensively. We all need helpful criticism to be better and we all need people who can be tough with us if we’re going to stay sharp.
Respond Rather than React to Criticism. When we respond, when we listen, ask questions, show appreciation and answer calmly, we give opportunity for something productive to occur.
Realize More Is Usually at Stake than a Single Relationship. When we handle criticism in a way that leads to breakthrough, growth, respect, you can count on the fact that more people will benefit than just us and our critics.

We know that Mother's Day can bring so many emotions. For some, it's a day of joy, others a day of grief. For most moms, 2020 was difficult in ways we could have never seen coming. But, in the midst of wherever you are right now, you need to hear this message. You need to know that you are loved and you are worthy.
