Conflict
by PamFord Davis
8/17/2017 / Devotionals
Conflict; I’m against it.
“Love must be without hypocrisy. Detest evil; cling to what is good. Show family affection to one another with brotherly love. Outdo one another in showing honor. Do not lack diligence; be fervent in spirit; serve the Lord. Rejoice in hope; be patient in affliction; be persistent in prayer. Share with the saints in their needs; pursue hospitality. Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice; weep with those who weep. Be in agreement with one another. Do not be proud; instead, associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own estimation. Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Try to do what is honorable in everyone’s eyes. If possible, on your part, live at peace with everyone (Romans 12:9-18 HCSB).”
Did Paul have opposition; did he have enemies? Yes. At times, he was falsely accused, beaten, and arrested. In the end, they took his life. He penned the passage above.
Does it sound like a man demanding his rights? Seeking revenge? No. He allowed the Lord’s love to reign in his heart. It brings healing.
“Love is patient, love is kind.
Love does not envy,
is not boastful, is not conceited,
does not act improperly,
is not selfish, is not provoked,
and does not keep a record of wrongs.
Love finds no joy in unrighteousness
but rejoices in the truth.
It bears all things, believes all things,
hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never ends (1 Corinthians 13:4-8a HCSB).”
