When You Cannot Defend Yourself
“Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.” Psalm 37:5 KJV
You may sometimes feel that defending yourself would only make matters worse. That does not mean you are helpless.
God does not require you to win every argument or convince everyone of your innocence. There is no one innocent.
Pray:
“Father, You know the truth about me. When I cannot explain myself or when people misunderstand me, help me remain peaceful. If something needs to be exposed, let You expose it. If something needs to be corrected, show me how. I place my reputation in Your hands. Amen.”
Christlike attitude:
I don’t have to defend myself against everything.

Margo Huss is a loving Christian mother of 7 and wife of a Muslim Christian convert. She enjoys musing on hot political and philosophical issues from on the ground and through life in Christ.
A recovering Gen X-er, she offers a refreshingly honest, if not muesli-brained and opinionated view on current cultural issues. Contrary to what some might believe, she is open to new ideas and is a life-long learner.
Typically female, she transcends factual information and thinks she is always right. She may occasionally agree with you, though you will never know. You are wrong even when you are right. You may find her mainstream takes luke warm, but her faith runs deep and hot.
You can block her, abuse her, or simply enjoy interacting with her, but you cannot shut her up.
