But as we went back and forth, I was reminded again of how God is helping me grow up. I didn’t need to, or even want to, “win” an exchange. I know there’s nothing to win. I knew the people attacking me weren’t really attacking me. I don’t know what they’ve been through. I don’t have to “win,” because I know God is in control and He loves those people. And I don’t have to “win,” because there’s no status at stake. When people make assertions about me, I can actually think them over and occasionally say, “You know what? That’s a good point.”
