  Being For Something - Not Just Against Something, a Sunday Thought Author Sarah Bessey names: the need to be “for” something good, not merely “against” what is wrong. Imagining and contending for what you hope for in this world is one of the hardest and kindest paths I’ve discovered out here. Don’t forget to dream of what could be possible. And don’t forget to live into those hopes with faithfulness. In the midst of all this, don’t forget to imagine something better. Have ideas. In the Apostle Paul’s second letter to Timothy’s he put it this way : Stay away from foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they grow into quarrels. And a servant of the Lord must not quarrel but must be kind to everyone, a good teacher, and patient. The Lord’s servant must gently teach those who disagree. Then maybe God will let them change their minds so they can accept the truth. And they may wake up and escape from the trap of the devil, who catches them to do what he wants.  2 Timothy 2:23-26 Ne
