Proverbs 31:26
She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of
kindness.
Wisdom and Kindness
Two rules
are given for our mouths – wisdom and kindness.
Our mouths should not pour forth the foolishness of anger and
contentions. Our mouths should not be
quick to give advice based on emotions and human loyalty. Our mouths should speak forth the counsel of
God and having exposed ourselves to the Word of God on a regular basis it
should be so. Kindness should be the
rule for EVERYTHING we say. We should
not only use the culturally acceptable polite words but use words that are soft
and not so harsh. Please and thank you should
come out often and we should word things in such a way that does not intentionally
provoke or tear down. The Lord wants His
gals to be wise and kind. Oh Lord that
we would open our mouths with wisdom and that kindness would the law by which
we speak!
