Day 350 Nose Butter | Proverbs 30:32-33

Send us Fan MailNose Butter 32 If you have been a fool by being proud or plotting evil,     cover your mouth in shame.33 As the beating of cream yields butter     and striking the nose causes bleeding,     so stirring up anger causes quarrels.I’ve mentioned this before, but it’s worth repeating: check out the Book of James, Chapter 3. It talks about how hard it is to control what we say. When I’m tempted to respond with a sharp word, I pray that God will help me keep my lips shut. On the occasions when I forget to ask for that help, I often regret what I’ve said.Proverbs makes it clear: sometimes the best thing to do is to put your hand over your mouth. Despite what pop psychology may say, venting your anger isn’t cathartic or healthy. Verse 33 reminds us that stirring up your anger only leads to more anger, which becomes stronger and harder to control.Let me ask you: What steps do you need to take to control your tongue and avoid saying things you’ll later regret?If you want daily truth in a raw, simple format… come follow us on TikTok at Wisdom for the Day — RAW.Real truth.
