Listen

My dear brothers and sisters, always be willing to listen and slow to speak. Do not become angry easily,

James 1:19 NCV

God, please make me quick to listen today. Show me how to love others sincerely and practically. Change the way I approach people by replacing my anger and frustration with grace, empathy, peace, and understanding. Fill me with Your peace and love so that my attitude and actions reflect Your character. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
