“For I am full of words; the spirit within me compels me.”
Job 32:18 CJB
Here we see the writer saying there is much more that he wants to say, but the Spirit of Adonai constrains him! This is a good word for us because often times we should just hold our tongues!
“A gentle response deflects fury, but a harsh word makes tempers rise.”
Proverbs 15:1 CJB
Often times in situations if we just bite our tongues and be sweet in our speech much more can be accomplished! Often times when we are gentle and pleasant many problems will never occur!
“A soothing tongue is a tree of life, but when it twists things it breaks the spirit.”
Proverbs 15:4 CJB
Today, we all need to learn that we can attract more people with a voice of honey than we can with vinegar! Adonai is sweet not bitter and so should we be!
Have a blessed day speaking sweetly to people!
Shabbat Shalom!
