"but they could not stand up against his wisdom or the Spirit by whom he spoke."
Acts 6:10
Picked up in the middle of the sentence, but this one is so strong. This is speaking of Stephen who was one of the seven chosen by the twelve disciples to handle the smaller duties. It's crazy how many times someone comes up and either questions or insults my faith. Far too often my immediate response is to get angry, my emotions can get the best of me at times. What I've learned to work on is not acting on my emotions, rather looking to God for guidance. With the help of the Holy Spirit these people will not present a logical argument. I guess it's something a lot of us need a little work on.
