Bible Verse of The Day – 3-15-22

Proverbs 15:1 (NKJV) 1 A soft answer turns away wrath, But a harsh word stirs up anger.

As believers in Christ, it’s important that we remember this in the midst of discussions, including some that may be heavy or intense.

We must be able to change our tone and hold our emotions together at a moment’s notice.

Is it easy? NOPE, not on our own. But, with the Holy Spirit, He will help us stay calm and hold our fleshly desires under control.

We can still be firm, even in our soft answers. It will make a difference. But if we are harsh or angry, and we say things that are not helpful, it can very well stir the pot.

We don’t want to be harsh when expressing ourselves; we want to be productive.

We want to be heard. And if that is the case, we must take these words to heart literally. Soft answers work!

We have to be able to stuff the emotions down sometimes. That is all part of maturing as a believer. Matured enough to say no to the emotions and yes to the Holy Spirit’s leading.

Words will make a difference when used correctly, with the right tone. They will bring much healing, understanding and forward motion.

Soft turns away wrath. Harsh stirs the pot.
