God’s word emphasizes that
a home full of quietness and peace is much better than a house loaded with
feasting but full of arguments and conflict. Peace between people requires
establishing mutual trust. Trust is built through listening with the intent to understand (not judge) the other person and through carefully choosing our words and the tone in
which they are spoken. Speaking off our mind without carefully filtering our
words and the impact they can have on the other person will produce anger and
will lead us to behave in a way that is not pleasing to God.
I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:
Abba
Father, I
pray that out of Your glorious riches You strengthen me with power through Your
Spirit in my inner being, so that I can be a
careful, thoughtful listener who listens with empathy and understanding. Help me Lord to control what I say,
how I say it, and to be mindful of not
hurting the listener and also help me
purify what I think. Keep me away from ALL
strife Lord and help me to be patient, forgiving
and slow to anger. Thank You Father
God for Your unfailing, inseparable,
deep and everlasting love for me, Your abundant blessings in my life, and for
the riches of Your grace upon my life. To Him who is able to keep
me from stumbling and to present me before His glorious presence without fault
and with great joy, to the only God our Saviour be glory, majesty, power and
authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore.
Amen. Jude
1:24-25
Jesus loves you,
In Him,
