Mommy's Little Notes

This is an updated version of some of my favorite scriptures on patience and gentleness.  I am trying to read over these at least once a day, especially going into the summer!!

Be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry.  Your anger can never make things right in God's sight.  James 1:19, 20

A fool gives full vent to anger but a wise person quietly holds back.  Proverbs 29:11

Don't sin by letting anger control you.  Psalm 4:4

The Godly think before speaking.  Proverbs 15:28

So think clearly and exercise self-control.  1 Peter 1:13

When she speaks her words are wise and kindness is the rule.  Proverbs 31:26

...clothe yourselves (daily) with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.  Col 3:12

Always be humble and gentle.  Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other's faults b/c of your love  Eph 4:2

Be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another just as God through Christ has forgiven you.  Eph.  5:31

Patience can persuade a prince, and soft speech can break bones.  Prov.  25:15

We prove ourselves by our purity, our understanding, our patience, our kindness, by the Holy Spirit within us, and by our sincere love.  

We pray that you will be strengthened with all His glorious power so you will have the endurance and patience you need.  Col. 1:11

Clothe yourselves with a gentle and quiet spirit.  1 Peter 3:4

I would love to add to this list if you have a favorite scripture.  Happy Summer to all of my dear mommy friends.
