Scripture

A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.

Reflection

A gentle answer can turn away wrath, while harsh words can intensify it. Proverbs does not forbid necessary correction or honest disagreement; it teaches wisdom in how we respond. When irritation rises, pause long enough to choose a truthful, measured answer. You may not control the other person's reaction, but you are responsible for your own words.
