From Paul to Timothy...
2 Timothy 2:23-25:
"Excuse yourself from any conversation that turns into a foolish and uniformed debate because you know they only provoke fights. As the Lord's slave, you shouldn't exhaust yourself in bickering; instead, be gentle- no matter who you are dealing with- ready and able to teach, tolerant without resentment, gently instructing those who stand up against you. Besides, the time may come when God grants them a change of heart so that they can arrive at the full knowledge of truth."
Can someone just ever so sweetly remind me of this every hour?
I guess that's what Jesus meant when He said He is sending us a Helper (aka the Holy Spirit) after He is gone to help us remember His words. Good thinking... now if only the Holy Spirit had a volume dial...
