—1 Corinthians 1:18-25

For some time after I asked Christ into my heart, I felt the need to defend my beliefs. Snarky comments about Christianity would get my hackles up and I would throw back an answer dripping with anger. Thankfully, the Lord has changed my heart. Today, whenever someone has a nasty comment about my faith, I understand that they have been deceived and do not know the peace of Christ. No longer do such comments lead me to anger, but rather to a sense of grieving over their loss as well as a profound thankfulness for the freedom that I have found in Christ Jesus.
