Quarreling and disputes seem to be everywhere. Part of the evil forces in our world seem to create drama that draws a lot of people in. While the drama unfolds, disappointment, division, and dis-illusion settle in. I’ve made the mistake of being drawn into a divisive conflict many times. I’m trying to say less and pray more. God is the Judge and He will take care of all injustice and will settle the truth in His timing. Jesus endured hostility and torture as an innocent man, all out of love for us. Yet He is coming back as Judge and He will take care of business in His way. It may not be pretty. David’s example of not being reactive every time something was said about him is an example to follow. He was not perfect but his loyal commitment to wait until the right time and his deep friendship with Jonathan are worth following in our lives.
