THE POWER OF GENTLE WORDS
🌿 DISCOVERING TODAY | DT-043

— Proverbs 15:1

They can encourage someone who feels discouraged, restore hope to someone who is hurting, and bring peace into a difficult situation.

Gentleness is not weakness. It is strength under control.
Before you respond today—especially when you are angry—pause and ask yourself:
👉 Will my words bring peace or increase the conflict?…
