Extra grace required- just ignore

I am a collector of quotes and a few really fit here:
Those who anger you—conquer you.
It is better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
Don’t argue with an idiot—people watching may not be able to tell the difference.
Does your life shed light or cast a shadow?
Talk slowly but think quickly.
Never miss a good chance to shut up.
You can never unsay a cruel word.
Before a word is on my tongue you know it completely, O Lord. Psalm 139:4 [--Good thing He often keeps me from saying it out loud!]
Some people make cutting remarks, but the words of the wise bring healing. Proverbs 12:18
Those that control their tongue will have a long life; a quick retort can ruin everything. Proverbs 13:3
Wise people think before they act; fools don’t and even brag about it! Proverbs 13:16

Wow. Those verses have really spoken to me! Sometimes I’m that wise person but at other times- I’m the fool!

Hi- I read your blog often. Just wanted you to know God used you to minister to me today. I have a EGR in my life at present. I must say, I have been acting the fool in my responses. This is the encouragement I need to respond to God rather than her. Thanks for sharing.
