Take A Pass
2 Timothy 2:23 (NLT) Again I say, don’t get involved in foolish, ignorant arguments that only start fights.
Keep your peace, and stay out of adversarial traps. It’s not easy to get along with everyone. This includes family members as well as people in general. A conversation can shift negatively from zero to one hundred heat in a matter of seconds, and you adding to it will only make matters worse. Take a pass, excuse yourself, walk away... and when you do these things – be sure to leave whatever you are removing yourself from right there where it started. Don’t take it with you, and don’t let it creep into your spirit. Your life is too rich with Kingdom value for you to let it get entangled in something that isn’t even the what’s being argued about. Say that!
