TODAY’S THOUGHT
How many times have we regretted something we said or did? We were too hasty, reacting before we could think. How much pain have we caused acting out of anger, not concerned about the consequences? James admonishes us to be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry. How different would our life be if we would follow this simple advice? How more effective would we be in our job, ministry, or dealing with those in our family? What opportunities to heal and bless others would be ours if we submit to James’ behavior code? Today, we can make a choice. Choose to listen. Choose to think before we speak. Choose to pray before we act out our anger. With God, all things are possible.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Dear Heavenly Father, I ask for Your help this day to watch my tongue and emotions. Please help me to listen to others. Help me to be careful before I speak, and help me control my temper. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit so I can be more like Your Son Jesus.
AMEN
