There's a time to pray and a time to act. And even though it's not easy, confrontation is often necessary. If you need to confront someone or something in your life, make sure you do it. If someone has treated you badly, you don't have to let them continue to disrespect you, de-value you or mistreat you. Obviously it won't help you, and it won't help that person either. Confront them about it.

Maybe what you need to confront isn't a person. Maybe it's something you've let creep into your life uninvited, like negative thoughts, a bad attitude or habitual sin. The good news is that you don't have to let it control you either—if you'll confront it.

Trusting in God is the key to moving forward into the things God has for us. The reason some of you aren't getting anywhere with the call on your life is because you haven't gotten some things straight in your personal life. You never know what's going to happen when you get up in the morning for that day, but God wants us to rely on Him and look to Him.When you immediately go to Him, suddenly something will change inside you….

I always regard Jesus as somehwat a king fu master in this respect.

When he was faced with confrontation, he was able to use the other persons momentum to discredit, (often in a gentle way) what they were doing.

it is the master who has learnt that the wielding of power is also the very making of responsibility. That with Jesus knowledge comes the need for the attitude of how to use it in a way that, well, makes his teaching of love and forgiveness stand up on it's own.

It is blocking punches and landing the agressor on cushions with a kiss.

At least, that's how I see Jesus.
