2 Timothy 2:24 (NASB) "The Lord’s bond-servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach, patient when wronged,"I wanted so badly to share my real feelings but I knew if I spoke the truth without love, I would be starting an argument! Today's verse speaks about not being quarrelsome, especially those of us who know the Lord. We are to be kind, able to teach and patient with those who have wronged us. Getting even or getting back at those who have hurt us is the way of the world NOT the way of Christ. It's our fleshly desire that wants to strike back where our spirit filled life should be setting or following the example Christ set for us. Whether it's with our wives, co workers, friends or even those we have just met, turning the other cheek will share Christ more than any harsh word spoken! Follow the Holy Spirit's lead in loving others rather than the world in hurting others! peace, tom
