Nehemiah 4:1-6

Nehemiah 4:1-6 

  How do you respond to someone belittling the work that you are doing?  
  I love Nehemiah's response -- the prayer is asking for vengeance, but they're not asking to deliver it, just that God set things right at some point down the road.  
  And then, they get back to building the wall.  They take a moment to turn their anger over to God, and then they turn back to focusing on the task at hand.  
  May we all be so diligent, and may we be so willing to turn things over to God and trust that all will be set right in God's time.
