Your Side #RTTBROS #nightlight Your side of the street "A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger." - Proverbs 15:1 (KJV) Reflection: In our daily walk, we oft encounter those who test our patience and vex our spirits. It is easy to respond in kind, matching harsh words with harsh words, and anger with anger. Yet the wisdom of Scripture counsels us otherwise. To "keep our side of the street clean" is to tend to our own conduct, regardless of how others may behave. It means responding with gentleness even when faced with wrath, and choosing words that soothe rather than inflame. This principle finds its root in the teachings of our Lord, who exhorted us to turn the other cheek and to love our enemies. It is not a call to be a doormat, but rather a challenge to rise above the fray and maintain our integrity in the face of provocation. When we focus on controlling our own attitudes and actions, we free ourselves from the burden of trying to change others. We cannot compel another to act with kindness or reason, but we can choose our own path of righteousness. In so doing, we may find that our "soft answer" does indeed turn away wrath. And even if it does not, we can rest in the peace that comes from knowing we have conducted ourselves in a manner pleasing to God. Let us pray for the strength to keep our own side of the street clean, to respond with grace in the face of difficulty, and to trust in the Lord's guidance through all of life's relational storms. Prayer: Heavenly Father, grant us the wisdom to control our tongues and temper our reactions. Help us to keep our side of the street clean in all our dealings, that we might be a light in this world and a reflection of Your love. In Jesus' name, Amen. https://linktr.ee/rttbros Be sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out. https://linktr.ee/rttbros
