When we step back and emotionally disengage—we then must allow a spiritual engagement to take its course. Spiritual engagement means that we ask ourselves the question “what would God have me to do?” We place ourselves out of the emotional upheaval and begin to see the situation from an eternal perspective.

Prayer

Dear Lord, help me to know when I’m becoming more emotionally than spiritually engaged in a conflict. Give me the strength to tone down my emotions and respond in the most loving spiritual engagement. In Jesus’ name, amen.

In His Service,
