Teaching Quick to listen, slow to speak

Be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry - and when you don't know what to do, just ask God.

  • Think about today. Was there a moment you talked first when it would have been better to listen first?
  • When something makes you angry, what helps you slow down before you do or say something?
  • James says we can ask God when we don't know what to do. What is one thing you'd like to ask Him about?
