Let All Bitterness and Wrath Be Put Away From You

January 13.

Speak not evil one of another, brethren.


JAMES 4, verse 11.


Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger,
and clamor, and evil speaking, be put away
from you, with all malice.

EPHESIANS 4, verse 31.


If aught good thou canst not say
Of thy brother, foe, or friend,
Take thou, then, the silent way,
Lest in word thou shouldst offend.

ANONYMOUS.


If there is any person to whom you feel dislike,
that is the person of whom you ought
never to speak.

R. CECIL.


To recognize with delight all high and generous
and beautiful actions; to find a joy even in
seeing the good qualities of your bitterest
opponents, and to admire those qualities
even in those with whom you have least
sympathy, this is the only spirit which can
heal the love of slander and of calumny.

F. W. ROBERTSON.
