How often are we tempted to lash out and say something rude to someone when they have attempted to hurt or offend us? Our ego, our pride, screams, “Don’t take that from them! Don’t let them treat you that way!” But as we watch Jesus move throughout the Gospels, we notice that He is never cornered, knows when to ignore, is not defensive, is flexible, and is never rude.
When you are tempted to respond to someone in a rude way, take a moment to breathe in and pray for wisdom. Words can never be taken back once spoken, and when we love others as Jesus loves us, our desire will only be to lift them up, not tear them down.
