Don't Sweat the Small Stuff



Ecclesiastes 2:13 But I saw that wisdom has an advantage over foolishness as light has an advantage over darkness.

In life we will often find ourselves in petty situations that are intended to bring out a less flattering side of us. It is during these times we have to seek GOD more to see what areas in our lives he is trying to perfect.

We may even decide to disregard the opportunity to change by coming up with excuses to act on a situation that has the potential to be blown out of context.

James 1:19 Remember this, my dear brothers and sisters: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and should not get angry easily.

Let wisdom move you to a place above the influence of the enemy to mirror that of Christ.

He alone is the Author and Finisher of our Faith, and everything that he endured, and overcame was to empower us to crucify our flesh and let the WORD think, speak, and act on our behalf.

Hebrews 12:2
Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

You may be experiencing a petty disagreement that may or may not have anything to do with you directly, or a lingering issue that you have an opinion on. It may be a misunderstanding that needs clarity, or a decision out of your control.

Let love speak instead of a trivial debate that has no merit so GOD can receive the victory in your life another day.

1 Corinthians 15:57
But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Be Well in Jesus Name!
