1A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.
2The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness.
3The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.
4A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit.
5A fool despiseth his father's instruction: but he that regardeth reproof is prudent. Proverbs 15:1-5 KJV.
To know when to speak and how to speak in many ways is a lost art. We speak and then think about the consequences of what we have said. The idea that we need to stop and think before we engage our lips is not something many of us do. We react or respond to what someone says or does, then we come back later to realize if we had only taken a moment to allow the Spirit of God to touch us, we would be in a better place. . Think about it and you will realize that we react instead of allowing the Spirit of God to open our eyes to what He has for us. As we enter a newdayand there are all the possibilities before us, may weask the Holy Spirit to guide our paths and speak through us to those around us. May we be different because He lives within us.
Have a great rest of the week and week-end and tell someone about Jesus..
