For the sake of a clutch - Ferrari Vs Lamborghini

It all began over an argument about a clutch.  Ferruccio Lamborghini wasn't happy with the clutch on his new Ferrari and being an outspoken man, not satisfied with the service he was getting, he took his complaints to the top...to Enzo Ferrari himself.  Enzo took exception to receiving criticism about his automobile from a young tractor manufacturer and dismissed the man.  So Lamborghini took his love for fast cars and turned it into a passion for vindication. 

This story sheds important light on dealing with the subject of how we receive criticism into our lives.  Some people banish criticism to the junk pile and dismiss the message along with the messenger, while others take criticism to heart but allow the message to destroy their self esteem. 

What God desires is that we learn to filter criticism and to use it for our own development and growth but not allow it to destroy the truth of who we are in Him..... strong, courageous and victor's in Christ!  Changing our attitude towards criticism can well change the altitude of our achievements.
