Good Morning!

Have nothing to do with foolish and ignorant speculations [useless disputes over unedifying, stupid controversies], since you know that they produce strife and give birth to quarrels.  -2 Timothy 2:23 AMP

How many times do we engage in disputes that really don’t matter in the big scheme of life? Sometimes we get involved in them to the point where we part ways permanently with someone since they upset us in a dispute that 5-10 years later, looking back, is going to create regret that we let something like that get between us. Speculating on a subject to the point where we get in an argument is like worrying, it will not actually change anything except create disputes. As we go through our day let’s be conscious of the arguments that we are tempted to get into and if they are actually worth the strife. Not saying we can’t disagree and work through things, in fact healthy dialogue in differences is good, but the key phrase there is healthy dialogue. Over the next two days we will dig deeper into this and see what follows these verses in how we should handle these situations.

“Never argue with a fool, onlookers may not be able to tell the difference.”  -Mark Twain

“It is better to be silent than to dispute with the ignorant.”
