Teen Argument, Tired Words ❤️

Finding peace after door slams! ✨

March 05, 2025

Scripture For Today: "A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger."

Proverbs 15:1

Those words still hang in the air after the door slam.

You sit on the edge of your bed, wishing you could take back what you said.

Perhaps you wonder if your teen will ever see how much you just want what's best for them.

Today, St. John Joseph of the Cross shows us how love stays strong even when words fail.

Tough love is still love.

God hears your quiet tears.

Today's Prayer: Bridge Building

When harsh words flow like a tide,

And we stand on each our side,

Help me build a path back home,

Where no heart needs to roam.

Grant me words both soft and true,

Ways to show my love anew,

Give my child the grace to see,

All the love that flows from me.

Lord who mends what comes apart,

Bind us close from heart to heart.

Amen.

May St. John Joseph's gentle ways remind you today—

First words aren't final words.

Love speaks in second tries.
