Abandon: Violence

Violence is a by-product of other sins in our hearts. (i.e., anger, jealousy, control, pride) It shows up when a person who feels weak and without purpose is deceived into thinking that it will solve the problem. All of the sudden, the person feels strong, in control, and has something to do.

Like drama, violence can happen with anybody at any age; we’re all capable of it. It’s sometimes a tough thing to admit or think about. However, the truth is we must be on guard because we all can become prey to the trap that is violence.

How do we abandon violence? We must guard our hearts. There are too many people who have arrived at this ugly destination and wondered how they ever got there. Here’s what Scripture says in Psalm 34:14, “Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.” (NIV)

Prayer:
Our Father, may peace be on our minds and in our hearts. May we see it as a valid response even when it doesn’t make sense. May others see Your ways in us as we live to bring Your complete shalom to the world in Your name.

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
