The One Year Bible - Day 225

Sanballat's servant approaches Nehemiah with a letter full of lies and asks for a response, so Nehemiah tells him that it's all nonsense and sends him away. How many of us would have done the same? We often have a more political bent than Godly people should have. What do I mean? Well do we avoid confrontation at all costs or are we able to tell people when they are out of line? Sadly, it seems most of us think that confrontation is not Godly and we do all we can to accommodate. Fortunately, I am at a church where the pastor is able to confront people when they are out of line and can deal with issues before they become too big.
