Today’s Scripture
“A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it! The way of life is above to the wise, that he may depart from hell beneath. The LORD will destroy the house of the proud: but he will establish the border of the widow. The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the LORD: but the words of the pure are pleasant words. He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live. The heart of the righteous studieth to answer: but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things. The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.”
Proverbs 15:23-29
Today’s Thought
Your response to people is the key to how they will receive you. Study how to respond to people and always have a soft answer, it removes the strife from every environment you enter.
Today’s Confession
Thank you, Lord, that I can approach every environment with a peaceful and soft answer. Help me be quick to respond in patience and love and not quick to respond in strife or anger. Help me to walk in love in every atmosphere!
