The Respect Dare: Day 2


(feeling a little lost? See what this is all about)

Philippians 2:14 says, "Do everything without complaining or arguing."

It's a simple enough command. But is it easy in practice? No. Not when your parents tell you to clean your room, and you like it the way it is. Not when your parents tell you to stay home and do homework instead of going to see a movie with your friends. Complaining and arguing--as teenagers, we make those two things our defining characteristics in moments of trouble.

So, here's your dare today: as you obey your parents in everything they tell you (continuing your dare from day 1), stay away from complaining or arguing. Hold your tongue.
