On Fire Devotion Week 2 Day 3: Silence is Power

Mark 15:3 And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing.

Am I Christ-like? When people mock me how do I react. When people fling verbal swords at me, how do I take it...what do I say? Do I fight back? Do I raise my voice and make known how insecure I really am? Do I hit the brakes a little harder to send a message? Do I give a look of hate? Am I Christlike? He answered nothing! Silence is the ultimate symbol of power. Don't give in.....the devil is a punk.

This is so true. I've found that when people are hurling accusations they expect you to react and defend yourself. When you are silent, they are confused and often stammer because they didn't think they would have to do all the talking.
