“What would it look like to trust Jesus, to be patient, to be loving, or to be content just for the next ten minutes?” That’s a next-right-thing mindset for your soul. Maybe you’ll listen before you speak. Maybe you’ll offer a smile, a nod, or a hand. Maybe you’ll simply be present with someone without an agenda. Could it be possible that the person you’re competing with most is some idealized version of yourself that you can never live up to? Would you be willing to set her free? How about just for the next ten minutes?
