Two Faced
By Mark Flippo
Proverbs 15:1-A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.
How hard is this to practice? Seriously! Boy have I had to work on this one. The first things that a lot us do when faced with someone yelling at us is yell back! How easy is that? If what you say has to use exclamation points you might want to put a reign on your tongue. What does Proverbs say? A soft answer! Hold your peace and let the Lord fight your battles!! This has to be in our hearts, even if it takes time to get there. It can be such a pain for someone to tell you "to practice what
you preach." That will hit you in your "Jesus I'm sorry" place! It is better to be sorry and correct your error, than to have your conscience seared were you don't feel regret for what you said. It helps to repent a lot!
