Great Ironies of History, Part One

Day 16

In a little warm-up to Independence Day on Wednesday, here’s what England’s King George III wrote in his journal on Thursday, 4 July 1776:

“Nothing much happened today.”

Onward.

One of my friends recently told me, “You can’t trust the Lord for someone else.” Sometimes when you have to confront another believer or have an uncomfortable conversation with them, it’s hard to know how they will react. What she was saying is that as you go into a difficult situation you are responsible for your own heart and attitude before the Lord. They, not you, are responsible for their’s.

That was one of the best communication reminders I’ve heard in a long time.
