Amos 5:13

I often have an opinion…about everything. It seems like I either love something or I hate it.(Which is funny., because I can’t hardly stand the word “hate” being spoken out loud ~ if that makes any sense.) It took awhile to realize that I was like this. It is funny how things in life tend to make some of my personality traits very evident to me. Am I going to change because of my new found revelation? No, I will not. But one thing I will change is how I respond. Looking back, there are some moments that have been proud of the way I have respond to difficult situations. But that is not always the case. Many times, when my expectations are not met, I find myself letting others know about it.

I read the book of James a lot! It has so many verses having to deal with the tongue. In BSF last week I came across the verse Amos 5:13 “Therefore, the prudent man keeps quiet in such times, for the times are evil”. I want to be a “prudent woman” I want to be a woman of Godly character. My prayer today is just that, and God’s wisdom on when to speak my opinions and when to keep my mouth shut!:)
