Title: Be Smart And Show Your Glory

Scriptures: Proverbs 19:11

God’s Message/Promise/Commands:

Amazing day with Jesus!  Today, we have one of the wisest words from God.  Verse 11 says, "Smart people know how to hold their tongue; their grandeur is to forgive and forget" - Today God tells us to be smart.  It's so easy to speak out our minds and just let out what is in our heart but often times, it is the start of conflict and issues.  So God tells us to be smart!  Hold our tongue...but most importantly, forgive and forget.  Yes, it is easier said than done but the truth is, it can be done!  And according to verse 11, to forgive and forget is your greatness, your beauty, your glory!  Remember, hold your tongue and forgive and forget.  Be smart and show your glory today!

Prayer:

Lord Jesus, what an amazing word!  I am blessed to have a teacher like You who gives me wise words to live by each day.  Thank You Lord for reminding me to be smart and to forgive and forget.  Help me Lord to know how to keep my mouth shut especially when my emotions are at its peak.  Help me Lord to forgive and forget.  I acknowledge that it is hard to do, but I can do it with Your help!  In Jesus' Name, Amen!

Memory Verse Share today:

Proverbs 19:11 (The Message Version)

Smart people know how to hold their tongue; their grandeur is to forgive and forget.

It's so easy to just speak your minds and hearts out!  There's a certain release when we do so but know that it is not the smart thing to do.  Being smart is not about being quiet but knowing how to hold your tongue when there's a need to.  To forgive and forget is another difficult thing to do, but it is something we can do!  And God says that to do so is our splendor, our glory, our greatness.  So today, let's be smart and show our glory by knowing how to hold our tongue and practice forgiving and forgetting.
