Countless relationships are destroyed by things that are said hastily and impulsively. We get in an argument with someone, feel the anger well up inside of us, and then lose control. We can't think clearly, and so words come out of our mouth that can never be unsaid and the damage is done. Think back to times in your life when you've said something you wish you could take back. Ever desire to go back in time to prevent one of your own actions? Consider the danger of reckless words spoken in anger. Check your anger before you speak, and your relationships will be stronger for it. Stay cool.
Readings: Judges 15:1-16:31; John 2:1-25; Psalm 103:1-22; Proverbs 14:17-19
