Listen to the Everyday Prayers with Million Praying Moms Podcast every weekday to start your day in God’s Word and prayer for the people you love most.
The world around us rewards those who speak up, don’t back down, go down swinging, and rise again. We can simply step into the ring of social media to contend for our opinions without even leaving our homes. Stand at the edge of a fight, and you’ll hear the cheers of energy and exhilaration as onlookers enjoy the clash. When we get wrapped up in quarreling, our home can soak up the strife. If we’re not careful, our family will feel our fight.
When the first punch is thrown as an offense, sharp word, or demeaning glance, the next words we choose either fuel the strife or stand for peace. We either step into the fight or away from it. We choose to make strife or peace.
Is there a controversy you need to drop or an injury you need to forgive? How could you bring more peace to your home? Listen to today’s podcast episode from Julie Sanders, based on Proverbs 20:3.
