Reading: Proverbs 15:23-33 |
The right words at the right time are such a blessing, both to the speaker and to the hearer.
What a thrill to know I have given the right answer or the right advice or the right perspective!
Like this:
“A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it!” (23).
How to achieve that?
Here’s part of the answer:
“The heart of the righteous studieth to answer: but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things” (28).
To give the right answer, study on it before answering.
To give the right answer, be righteous.
