Walk on By

As I have been on social media lately,
I have heard the Holy Spirit say to me,
Stay out of it
Walk on by

It can be easy to weigh in
Your opinion can be quite valuable to you
To you, yourself and you
That’s pretty much it
And, of course, you might get some likes or admiration
from others who agree with you
Or, perhaps, you might get into a scuffle with one or more persons on there
It can get ugly
God is most often not glorified in most scuffles

If we do what Jesus did, that is, say what we hear the Father say,
we will most likely not say much at all
And, when we do, it will be powerful or helpful for the Kingdom

If we allow ourselves to get into the strife, we are not helping our calling
We cannot walk in the muck of the world
and then serve the Lord without the Lord cleansing us

For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly,
working not at all, but are busybodies
. 2 Thessalonians 3:11
And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house;
and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies,
speaking things which they ought not
. 1 Timothy 5:13
