19 You must understand this, my beloved brothers and sisters: let everyone be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger, 20 for human anger does not produce God’s righteousness. 21 Therefore rid yourselves of all sordidness and rank growth of wickedness, and welcome with meekness the implanted word that has the power to save your souls.
Prayer Focus: As commentator Pheme Perkins writes, “The first example of how persons exhibit wisdom in their lives touches an area that most Christians today never think of, attention to speech.” Be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger. It is so easy to be quick to speak, quick to anger, and to fail to even begin to listen. But living in the way of God begins with listening and welcoming with meekness the implanted word that has the power to save your soul. Ponder this wisdom today. How might it change your speech? Pray for God’s wisdom will be evident in your words.
