When [Jesus] suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously. —1 Peter 2:23


It was a hasty, thoughtless word,
Sarcastic and unkind,
That chilled the day and dimmed its light
And left a sting behind

When you're wronged, don't do what comes naturally; do what comes supernaturally.

Taliban chief Mulla Omar seriously injured

ISLAMABAD, March 29: Taliban supreme leader Mulla Mohammad Omar was seriously wounded and four of his body guards killed in a U.S. bombing blitz in the middle of March, the Urdu-lanugage daily Ausaf reported today. Quoting Dr. Jabbar Aziz, the paper claimed the raid on the Taliban chief's hideout in the southern Zabul province resulted in serious injuries to Omar's legs and the left side of his body. He is now out of danger but would not be able to move for about two months, the paper quoted Dr. Aziz as saying, without explaining how and where the conversation took place.

Where Will It All End?

Read: 1 Peter 2:18-25

When [Jesus] suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously. —1 Peter 2:23

Bible In One Year: Judges 7-8; Luke 5:1-16


Four-year-old Angelo wakes up and discovers that his new beagle puppy has chewed up his plastic guitar. The little fellow has a fit of grief. Mom's nerves tighten. She snaps at husband Tony as he leaves for the office.

Still feeling the unhappy send-off, Tony greets his secretary with some cold and unreasonable instructions. She picks up the mood, and at coffeebreak tells off a fellow secretary. At closing time the second secretary tells her boss she's ready to quit.

An hour-and-a-half later, after fighting heavy traffic, the boss walks into his house and blurts out an angry word to little Nelson, who had left his bike in the driveway. Nelson runs to his room, slams the door, and kicks his Scottish terrier.

Where does it all end? Each person may think he or she had reason to be upset. But what was needed in this imaginary situation was one person who would absorb unjust treatment without lashing out.

This is when Christians have a unique opportunity. By knowing the Father's will, by heeding the Son's example, and by relying on the Spirit's help, we can endure bad treatment in order to show others a better way. In chain reactions of frustration and anger, we can be where it all ends. —Mart De Haan

It was a hasty, thoughtless word,
Sarcastic and unkind,
That chilled the day and dimmed its light
And left a sting behind. —Anon.

When you're wronged, don't do what comes naturally; do what comes supernaturally.

Father, we ask You to be with each and every
man and woman in service to our country.

They are ready to defend the principles
by which You would have us live,
and their sacrifices are many.

Give them strength and courage in everything they face,
and bring them home safely to us.

Amen.
