Be a light in the darkness, bringing hope and encouragement to those around you. 💡🌟 "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." - Matthew 5:16
-
Be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger, seeking understanding and empathy. 🙏👂🤝 "So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath." - James 1:19
