Let your speech at all times be gracious and pleasant, seasoned with salt, so that you will know how to answer each one [who questions you]. &nbsp;-Colossians 4:5-6<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How do we conduct ourselves? Do we do it with wisdom and seasoned speech? Are we looking to make the most out of every opportunity to glorify God? Too often that is not the case with us, our speech does not line up with what our beliefs are or our actions relay a different message than what we say. Most of the time when that happens is when we get upset or angry at something and we say or do something out of emotion that we wouldn\u2019t do if our emotions would be under control. That is why the enemy is always trying to get us offended over something because he knows in our normal state of mind we tend to act and speak what lines up with our beliefs. So starting each day choosing to not get offended is one of the best ways to conduct yourself with wisdom and making the most out of every opportunity. When you respond with love and grace when someone (or the enemy) is trying to push your buttons is a good example of your speech being seasoned with salt and knowing how to answer anyone who questions you. Dare to be different from the normal response, dare to be Christ-like when someone does something that you have every right to get upset about. Be the change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe time you spend alone with God will transform your character and increase your devotion.
