Day 164 of 365

Wisdom and Kindness Together

“She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.”

Proverbs 31:26 (KJV) |

What This Means for You

The Proverbs 31 woman opened her mouth with wisdom, and on her tongue was the law of kindness. Not one or the other. Both. Wisdom without kindness is harsh. Kindness without wisdom enables. When you put them together, your words build people up without tearing truth down.

Try This Today

In your next hard conversation, ask yourself two questions before you speak: 'Is this wise?' and 'Is this kind?' If the answer to both is yes, say it. If not, wait.
