Proverbs 15:1(NIV 1984) says, "A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger."
In the world that we live with social media being so prevalent and we sit behind a computer and write things, this verse is so important. We often will write things that we would never say to a person's face. Also, we say things that destroy versus build up. Let us be gentle with our answers. Let us think through what we say and what we post. Before we press send, make sure that what is being said won't be damaging to our witness for Jesus. In the words that Herm Edwards (former NFL coach) when teaching rookies about coming into the league "Don't Press Send".
Just some thoughts for this day.
