In studying Matthew 12:22-27 for the lesson, “Watch your words”, the phrase, “who are you to say...” came to mind. The crowd around Jesus speculated out loud, whereas the Pharisees spoke in judgment.
We talk back to spouses, parents, managers, teachers, etc. out of pride, or ego, even when we are ignorant on some matter. Our selfish ambition has few limits except when we live in conscious fellowship with the Lord, reverencing Him. How do we “talk back” to God today? Do we tell Him what to do? Do we question His methods? Do we criticize His purposes?
