KnowledgeKnowledge Restrains Words
He that hath knowledge spareth his words: and a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit.
· · ·
True knowledge teaches us when to speak and when to remain silent.
A person of knowledge demonstrates restraint in speech, knowing that words carelessly spoken cannot be retrieved. Understanding creates a spirit of calm and self-control. This wisdom recognizes that silence is often more powerful than speech and that measured words carry greater weight than many words.
For Today
Practice restraint in your speech today, speaking less and listening more, especially in situations where you might normally react quickly.
Prayer
Lord, grant me knowledge that leads to wise speech. Help me spare my words and maintain a calm spirit. Amen.
