📖 “A knowledgeable person controls his tongue; a discerning person controls his temper.” -Proverbs 17:27 Complete Jewish Bible
When you understand the power of the tongue, you become very meticulous about which words come out of your mouth. You understand the importance of your words, and you become selective about what you are going to say because you know that whatever is about to come out could change the situation or it could cause it to become worse. Knowledge should cause you to make better decisions. When you get knowledge of the importance of keeping your temper, it causes you to become slow to anger and slow to wrath. It causes you to think before you act. You will become more conscious of the fruit of the Spirit, and you will allow them to operate in your life. You will become more patient and kinder. There will be more joy. There will be more peace. You will be less likely to lose your temper and find yourself instead in control of your emotions. Knowledge not only brings us power, but it also brings us success.
