Silence Is Your Friend
The words of the reckless pierce like swords, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.—Proverbs 12:18 (NIV)
Be patient with your feelings. Responding to someone in the heat of the moment can escalate situations that could be avoided with time. When your impulse is to immediately respond, wait a minute or two. Pray for your words to bring healing.
Dear Lord, lead me to use my words to mend hearts and relationships.
