Tag: What the Bible says about speaking words out of anger

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-10-15

Proverbs 15:1 (NKJV) 15 A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.

People can really make us angry sometimes.

They can say things, do things or act a certain way and just get us riled right up. And most times, the easiest thing to do is to lash out at them and give them a piece of our mind.

Sometimes it may even seem that we’d be justified in doing that.

But words spoken in anger have never done any good, anywhere, in any situation.

There will be times when words need to be spoken with authority or with boldness, but not with anger.

The tone we use when we speak can seriously alter the direction that a conversation takes and, ultimately, the outcome of a discussion or disagreement.

Sometimes a person will simply have their mind made up about something, and nothing we do or say can change them, because of the state their heart is in. But if they are sincere and open to listening and reasoning, words spoken with love and kindness can bring change where nothing else can.

Speak words of kindness, out of love, and watch how things change over time.

We dare you.
