One Year Bible – Day 256

S – Don’t speak to a fool, for he will despise the insight of your words

Proverbs 23:9 CSB

O – We should not subject our words to those who don’t value them or respect us.

A – We are called to love all people.  In that, establishing healthy boundaries is vital to maintaining our own health.  We should be able to have a conversation with anyone that is respectful. If a person is not, establishing a line of relationship allows you to extend love while maintaining your own “distance.”

R – Heavenly Father, we honor you above all other names today.  Give us your heart when dealing with difficult situations and people.  Give us the courage to extend your love at all times.  Give us the wisdom to have healthy boundaries to protect the gifts and talents you give us.
