FULL OF GRACE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Be wise in the way you act toward others; make
the most every opportunity. Let your c0nversa-
tion be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so
that you may know how to answer everyone.
(COLOSSIANS 4:5-6)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Open my ears to the needs of others, Lord. Let today be my chance to really hear what is being said by those around me. Often my personal agenda fills my mind as others express their hearts. Grant me patience, openness, and compassion so I w2ill be eager to understand others needs. Perhaps they will just need to be listened to, maybe they will need comfort, or they might need to know of Your goodness.
After listening, may I speak words that are of You and inteded for that particular person. Never let my own objectives override the conversation You intend.
