Every morning, Maria sat by her window with a cup of tea and her worn-out Bible. She read a single verse before starting her day, seeking just one piece of wisdom to carry with her.
One Tuesday, as stress mounted at work and tempers flared, Maria remembered the words she’d read that morning: “A gentle answer turns away wrath.” Instead of snapping back, she listened patiently and spoke kindly—even when others didn’t.
By evening, her coworkers had softened, and harmony returned. Maria smiled, realizing that sometimes wisdom wasn’t in grand gestures, but in quiet choices made throughout an ordinary day. In the small moments, she felt closest to Christ—and knew His wisdom truly changed everything.
Prayer: Lord, Grant me Your wisdom today. Help me to speak with kindness, act with love, and reflect Your light in all I do. Guide my thoughts and decisions so that I may honor You in every moment. Amen.
