Have you ever done anything you wished you could take back? Ever said anything that couldn't then be unsaid? Oh to get those moments back when we hurt someone we cared about and change the course of our relationships and even our lives... regret. How often, when this has happened to you has it been in moments of passion and anger... just letting your unfiltered self let loose without concern or even awareness of the consequences of such actions? Dwell on this text and learn from it. Next time you're about to speak in anger or in a hurtful way, pray to God for self-control. It is the way of wisdom.
Readings: Hosea 4:1-5:15; 2 John 1:1-13; Psalm 125:1-5; Proverbs 29:9-11
