Just one letter separates “pretty” from “petty.” Petty isn’t pretty, either. Much of the time it’s a fruit of being offended. But if you walk with Jesus, you’ll have too much peace for pettiness (Psalm 119:165). You’ll replace a petty view with a pretty one. You’ll realize that someone’s offensive behavior says more about them than it does about you. You’ll pray it out rather than play it out. Be peaceful, and pretty.
