Proverbs 16:24 (NKJV) 24 Pleasant words are like a honeycomb, Sweetness to the soul and health to the bones.
There are times, even as a Christian, that we may want to say something unpleasant to someone or just have a rant about something that is bothering us.
The words we choose can make a huge difference in a situation, either positively or negatively. Knowing this should cause us to want to take our time and choose our words carefully and wisely.
However, in the heat of the moment, sometimes we just want to blurt out what we’re thinking. It takes discipline and strength when we are in this state of mind, to pull back and remember what God tells us to do in this situation.
James 1:19 (NKJV) 19 So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath;
Taking a few minutes and giving it some thought before saying something, especially if we are angry or have a strong opinion about something, can do a “WORLD” of good and can bring positive insight and healing.
