“The king is pleased with words from righteous lips;
he loves those who speak honestly.”
Proverbs 16:13
encouragement for today
Do you have someone in authority over you whom you must please (“the king”)? Focus on speaking words based on truth and love. You can never go wrong that way. (Remember, too, that you also have a heavenly King who is pleased by the same thing.) You win favor with God and human beings when your words are honest and true.
