Better is a dry morsel with quietness, than a house full of
feasting with strife. Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and
those who love it will eat its fruit. So
then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow
to wrath.
ملقمة يابسة ومعها سلامة خير من بيت ملآن ذبائح مع خصام. الموت والحياة في يد اللسان واحباؤه ياكلون ثمره. اذا يا اخوتي الاحباء ليكن كل انسان مسرعا في الاستماع بطئا
في التكلم مبطئا في الغضب.
Proverbs
17:1
Proverbs 18
James
1:19
Through God’s word we learn that quietness and
peace are much better than a house full of feasting and arguments and conflict.
Peace between people requires establishing mutual trust .Trust is about
listening and understanding - not necessarily agreeing (which is different) -
to the other person. Listening without judging is necessary.
A useful focus to aim for when listening to another
person is to try to understand him/her, how the other person feels, and to
discover what the other person wants to achieve. We need to seek first to
understand the other person, and then to try and be understood our self,
to strive deeply to understand the other person's point of view through
empathic listening.
I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:
Abba
Father, thank You for Your abundant blessings and love. I praise You and
glorify You. Lord help me to listen with empathy,
to understand other people, not to judge them, and to be slow to wrath. Help me
to control what I say and purify what I think. Now to Him who is able
to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the
power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to
all generations, forever and ever. Amen. Ephesians 3:20-21
