Bible Verse of The Day – 12-28-15

Luke 12:13-14 (NKJV) 13 Then one from the crowd said to Him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.” 14 But He said to him, “Man, who made Me a judge or an arbitrator over you?”

How many times a day do we get dragged into people’s quarrels, arguments, or discussions, that have nothing to do with us?

Jesus tells this man right out, “who made Me a judge or an arbitrator over you?” In other words, He’s not getting in the middle of this because it doesn’t concern Him.

Just as Jesus didn’t let this man drag Him in, we should not let people drag us into conversations or situations we don’t need to be involved in.

We need to keep moving forward in the things we need to be focused on. Things like this can bring distraction and a lot of emotional involvement that is unnecessary.

Just because we are Christians doesn’t mean we are judges or arbitrators over anyone.

Keep moving on, pass by those things that are a distraction and focus on those things that God wants us to be doing.
