Warning Sounds

Read: Proverbs 15:1–7

A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. Proverbs 15:1

Ever had a close encounter with a rattlesnake? If so, you might have noticed that the sound of the rattle seemed to get more intense as you moved nearer to the viper. Research in the scientific journal Current Biology reveals that the snakes do increase their rattling rate when a threat is approaching. This “high-frequency mode” can cause us to think they’re closer than they are. As one researcher put it, “The misinterpretation of distance by the listener . . . creates a distance safety margin.”

People can sometimes use increasing volume with harsh words that push others away during a conflict—exhibiting anger and resorting to shouting. The writer of Proverbs shares some wise advice for times like these: “A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger” (Proverbs 15:1). He goes on to say that “soothing” and “wise” words can be “a tree of life” and a source of “knowledge” (vv. 4, 7).

Jesus provided the ultimate reasons for gently appealing to those with whom we enter into conflict: extending love that reveals us to be His children (Matthew 5:43–45) and seeking reconciliation—“[winning] them over” (18:15). Instead of raising our voice or using unkind words during conflicts, may we show civility, wisdom, and love to others as God guides us by His Spirit. — Tom Felten

Why can it be difficult to be gentle and loving in a conflict? How can the Holy Spirit help you carefully choose your words and actions?

Heavenly Father, help me to lovingly address issues with those with whom I disagree.

Bible in a year: Ezekiel 37–39; 2 Peter 2

I got them all right. I teach environmental science for a homeschool competition team.

[fidelis]

9/10. The last one got me!

[xp38]

I think you’ll get a lot of perfect scores on this one. Let me be the first then. :)

[xp38]

Well second then.

I got a 10 over 10. T’was a fun test since I have always been interested in exotic animals. Back in the Motor City, I was the one kid on the block who knew virtually nothing about cars and didn’t particularly care about them either, so long as they worked. But I knew a great deal about breeds of dogs from around the world. I still have never met a Borzoi Hound face to face.

[dynachrome]

10/10. I did guess a bit on the last one.

[MeganC]

I got all ten but to be honest I deduced the last one.

[TheConservativeParty]

Ha! Got a 10! Did guess on the poisonous lizard though.
😅

It wasn’t a hard test, but it’s fun to be reminded of different animals.

Yep! That was a coin toss (I’d have known Gila Monster). Toss came out right. Lucky.

How is everyone tonight? Went to my local Mega Corp. Cell Phone System Store to buy a new cell phone today.

I HAD TO PROVIDE PHOTO ID TO ACCESS THE ACCOUNT TO UPGRADE MY CELL PHONE! NOT TO VOTE!, BUT TO UPGRADE MY CELL PHONE.

Good job!
Thanks for our beautiful
lesson from God's Word!

[luvie]

#2...Tax-chick!
Way to go!
First perfect score, too! Yay!

[lee martell]

Wonder what would have happened if you had shown the device a photo of Joe Biden eating Blueberry-Butter Pecan Ice Cream.
Maybe they would have given you free and easy access to his phone. Not that I would ever try anything like that!

[luvie]

#3...fidelis!
Bravo!
It's always that one, right?
