Once again I attended a
public meeting and heard a civil servant take a condescending tone with members
of the community…and get away with it. Government employees who look down on
the citizenry seem to forget that they work for the people. Similar situations
can be found in the church where sometimes we too forget Who we work for. I’m
reminded of Paul’s words to Timothy, “Don’t let anyone look down on you because
you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in
love, in faith and in purity” (1 Tim 4:12 NIV).
