Proverbs 29: 20 There is more hope for a stupid fool than for someone who speaks without thinking.
Solomon continues to give advice. Today was full of advice about leaders and servants. There was also advice about holding your anger back. And this, just like it was intended for me.
I'm so guilty of this. I speak without thinking all the time. Sometimes I think that's why God wanted me way out in the country. I don't have the opportunity to screw up as often.
Prayer: Lord, I am weak. I speak when I should be quiet. I shoot off my mouth when the best course of action would be to observe. I'm sorry that I am so addicted to public acclaim that I say things better left unsaid. Forgive me, and help me to be wiser in respect to my words.
Amen
