Self-Control
|
The one who knows much says little;
an understanding person remains calm.
Proverbs 17:27 (The Message)
He who has knowledge spares his words,
And a man of understanding is of a calm spirit.
Proverbs 17:27 (New King James Version)
A truly wise person uses few words;
a person with understanding is even-tempered.
Proverbs 17:27 (New Living Translation)
Very cool. What of the underlayments to self-control such as wisdom, patience, tact, and one I have been tinking about lately: agape. I have been thinking that if I am truly understanding and applying agape then I will exercise self-control based on that. What are your thoughts on this? -Kate
