A soft answer turns away wrath, But a harsh word stirs up anger.
Proverbs 15:1 NKJV
How I answer others sets the stage for what comes next. There is great power in response.
In this verse, I can either turn away wrath or stir up anger. I have that ability through my answer. It’s not just the initiator who sets the tone, but the responder too. As the old saying goes, ‘It takes two to tango’.
Am I an anger stirrer or a wrath turner-awayer?
