Avoid the Slingers

[Rev. Sidnei]

O God, You are my God, earnestly will I seek You; my inner self thirsts for You...in a dry and weary land where no water is...I have looked upon You in the sanctuary to see Your power and Your glory. Because Your loving-kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise You. Psalm 63:1-3


There were people in the Bible called slingers who defeated their enemies by slinging stones and throwing dirt into their wells, contaminating their life source of water (see 2 Kings 3:25). We all know people who sling accusations, judgments, criticism, and faultfinding at others. We certainly don't want slingers in our life, and we don't want to become slingers either.

Don't be a slinger who contaminates your own faith or the faith of those around you. Spending time with God will fill you with "living water" (see John 7:38). You will be edited and become a source of encouragement of others all day long.
