1 Peter 2:23 (NLT)

FROM TODAY'S READING...

"If my critics saw me walking [on water] they would say it was because I couldn't swim."

Margaret Thatcher (1925-2013)

British Prime Minister 


1 Peter‬ ‭2‬:‭23‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) He (Jesus) did not retaliate when he was insulted, nor threaten revenge when he suffered. He left his case in the hands of God, who always judges fairly.


Proverbs‬ ‭15‬:‭1‬-‭2‬, ‭7‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) A gentle answer deflects anger, but harsh words make tempers flare. The tongue of the wise makes knowledge appealing, but the mouth of a fool belches out foolishness...The lips of the wise give good advice; the heart of a fool has none to give.

‭‭

Ephesians‬ ‭4‬:‭29‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.
