Proverbs
15:1
A gentle
answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.
This verse
really hit me hard as I read it recently.
I find myself often getting frustrated with my six year old when he does
not listen. It is sometimes hard not to
give a harsh word but the truth of the matter is, it rarely helps.
Think about
times that you have had a choice to use a gentle answer over a harsh word. Which way tends to turn out better?
Today I want
to keep things short and simple. I want
to simply remind each of us to watch the words we pick. In doing so, you share the love of Christ
with others.
