愚か者は自分の道を正しいと思う。
しかし知恵のある者は忠告を聞き入れる。
愚か者は自分の怒りをすぐ現す、
利口な者ははずかしめを受けても黙っている。 箴言12:15-16
It's been two days since my parents arrived, and I had the first battle with my dad today. I used to have quite a few episodes with my dad when I was in middle school. Now that I have grown up (a lot outside, some inside), we are cool as long as we are living our own separate lives. It's a different story if you live under the same roof more than a night. I prayed that I do no judge him, accept him as he is and be thankful for him coming over all the way from Japan. I prayed that I watch my mouth, I opened the bible for today's devotion and found these words.
The way of a fool seems right to him,
but a wise man listens to advice.
A fool shows his annoyance at once,
but a prudent man overlooks an insult. Proberb 12:15-16
