Summary of my thoughts: Though it seems obvious, I think the thing the four listed passages have in common is a change in attitude. We as new creations in Christ must not be argumentative or foul-tempered. Our priorities, the things we valued most in life, should change. We should praise God and find joy in Him no matter our situation, and have faith in His strength. It is true that we should maintain great attitudes. God has blessed us so richly in His love and grace that if tomorrow, He left us destitute and alone, then we should still give Him praise for what He has done. Our joy in God should and will bless others. That inner peace and triumph radiates to everyone around us. We can live Jesus and teach Him through the joy in our lives.
"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose." Romans 8:28
