Scripture: “And when the Israelites heard that [the Jewish tribes on the other side of the Jordan] had built the altar on the border of Canaan at Geliloth near the Jordan on the Israelite side, the whole assembly of Israel gathered at Shiloh to go to war against them.” Joshua 22:11-12 (NIV) Application: Particularly when dealing with family, give the other side a chance to explain themselves. We may find that their motives were actually good and blessed by God... and we don't want to go to war with God's blessed people. Listen to the other side, and not just to what others say about them. Prayer: Dear Father, please help us listen to the other side, even when it appears that we are right and others are wrong. Amen.
