A fool shows his annoyance at once, but a prudent man overlooks an insult…Reckless words pierce like a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing. – Proverbs 12:16,18
May you guide my tongue O Lord, that it may bring healing instead of pain…

Peace is the light on the dashboard that lets you know how you’re doing or what is the best choice for a particular issue. William James said “When you have to make a choice and don’t make it, that is in itself a choice.”
Thank you.
It is the word of God that heals, so ask him to live and reign within you. In which case, every word that will come our from your mouth will serve it’s purpose. Thank you for sharing with us the content of Proverbs 12:16,18. More power to your words.
@Yohvshva1 – More power to you, too! God bless you.
