I am not known for my quiet voice, I am feared by many because of the deep loud voice that penetrates everyone around. I have seen that this is a gift of mine and although I have the ability to raise my voice with a lot of Power, I am not using the voice properly.
I do say it is a gift that I have, I know that I have the ability to penetrate peoples ears and gain their attention quickly with my voice. What would it be like if I used this voice to penetrate peoples ears with kind words instead of angry words, or hurtful words.
I am proud of who I am, however, I have a lot of work to do to make others proud of who I am. Today I read Proverbs 29 and it reminded me of last night. One of my daughters seamed to say only the wrong things to me, it was very upsetting, I was able to gain control quickly, but after one quick outburst I found myself in the bathroom on my knees asking for control.
I hope I can recognize this sooner in the future and feel the calm that God gives me the instant I need it.
