CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

The last couple day’s verse of the day I thought went well together and were just good for being a decent human being no matter what you believe.

“Control your temper, for anger labels you a fool.”
‭‭Ecclesiastes‬ ‭7:9‬ ‭NLT‬‬‬‬‬‬
“Kind words are like honey— sweet to the soul and healthy for the body.”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭16:24‬ ‭NLT‬‬‬‬‬‬

Just think before you speak. And be nice.
