Yesterday I had a conversation that reminded me of something profound: Jesus always knew the right way to respond. Sometimes He was silent, other times He spoke up, and in every case His response was full of grace.

The Bible tells us, “Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt” (Colossians 4:6). That kind of wisdom — knowing when to be quiet and when to speak — is priceless.

In a world that glorifies retaliation, Jesus shows us the power of restraint, forgiveness, and self-mastery.
