The Best Answer for Facing Hostility
Has someone become really upset with you? Perhaps they’ve even said some unkind words to you. It would be very difficult to get through life without facing conflict with someone you know. You’ve probably heard the famous saying before, “You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can never please all of the people all of the time.”
Sometimes the best answer is an answer spoken with humility even when you weren’t in the wrong. God’s Word says in Proverbs 15:1, “A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.” If you follow this procedure you’ll never find yourself in a yelling match to see who can outshout the other one.
The next time you’re facing conflict, and the battle is heating…ask God to help you use a soft answer. You’ll surely come out with better results than if you had participated in stirring up anger with grievous words in return.
