👋 Hey friend,
Have you ever been so caught up in your emotions that you didn’t realize how out of control you were… until God sent a fly into your mouth?
Just me? 😐
In this week’s Coffee and Bible Time podcast episode, I share a hilarious (and humbling) story about how God used two bugs—and one heated conversation—to highlight a deep biblical truth:
James 1:19 – “Be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger.”
We talk about 💬
- Why our knee-jerk anger usually covers up something deeper
- How to slow down before words fly (😏) out that we’ll regret
- Why James 1:19 is a game-changer in relationships
- And yes… how God sometimes uses bugs to get our attention 🪰
🎧 Listen for a good laugh and a whole lot of wisdom: 👉 https://coffeeandbibletime.com/james-119-quick-to-listen/
We’d love to hear how God speaks to you through this one—and feel free to forward it to a friend who needs a word of encouragement today!
With love (and a tightly closed mouth), Taylor + Ellen ☕
