When I focus on this scripture, I think of the importance of controlling my speech and trying to maintain an eternal perspective during times when emotions are running high. However, I recently was reminded that 90% of communication is conveyed through nonverbal means. Our body language and tone can sometimes speak louder than words.
Lately, I have been thinking that if I just keep my mouth shut and listen that I would be heading in the proper direction following this scripture. But I think another part of being slow to speak includes the nonverbal messages I may send as well.
The above referenced scripture is James 1:19
