Patient, Wise and Forgiving
A person’s wisdom yields patience; it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.—Proverbs 19:11 (NIV)
How do you react when someone hurts your feelings? Rather than responding in the heat of the moment, be patient. Consider the intention of the offender—and the best course of action. Approach the situation with wisdom and compassion.
Lord, help me to be a wise person in my relationships, forgiving others as You have forgiven me.
