A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.

(Proverbs 15:1)

Pray

Dear God,

You are the ultimate source of wisdom and understanding. Your word in this verse reminds us that a gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. Help me to always respond with kindness and gentleness, even in the face of anger or conflict. Give me the patience and self-control to respond in a way that reflects Your love and grace to others.

Help me to be a peacemaker, striving to bring harmony and understanding in difficult situations. Give me the wisdom to know when to speak and when to remain silent, and the discernment to choose my words carefully. May my actions and words always be a reflection of Your love and bring peace to those around me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
