• Job 8:2 (NKJV)

---

Job 8:2 “How long will you speak these things,
And the words of your mouth be like a strong wind?"

Some of the things Job's friends said sound right and biblical. I can't help but think of all the "right" & "wise" things I've said that have crushed the spirits of those I love. :( I hate that!

Lord help me to be more concerned with loving others than SPEAKING the truth in love to others. You have not called me to be the holy spirit to those around me. Help me to remember that there is a time to speak and a time to shut up and listen and according to Ecc 3:7 Shutting up is listed before speaking up.
Ecclesiastes 3:7 "... A time to keep silence, And a time to speak;"
