The Secret of Speaking with Wisdom and Grace

Colossians 4:6 says, “Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man.” A lady of godly value understands that grace and wisdom are inseparable when it comes to communication. Speaking with grace doesn’t mean avoiding the truth; it means clothing the truth in love so it can be received, not resisted. Grace makes your words nourishing, and wisdom ensures they are timely.

It is possible to say the right thing at the wrong time and cause more harm than good. That’s why timing is everything. Wisdom teaches you to discern when to speak, how much to say, and when silence itself speaks louder than words. Grace, on the other hand, keeps your heart soft and your tone gentle, even when the subject is tough. Together, they allow you to navigate sensitive issues without damaging the relationship.

Your words should leave the person you’re speaking to better than you found them. This is the power of “seasoned with salt”—your words carry flavor, preservation, and healing. Without grace, words become blunt instruments; with it, they turn into tools of restoration. You can express disappointment without dishonor, correction without condemnation, and passion without poison. That’s the beauty of speech guided by the Spirit.

As a lady of godly value, never underestimate how much influence your tone, timing, and tenderness hold in your relationship. Speaking with wisdom and grace not only reflects Christ in you but also deepens trust, intimacy, and respect. It makes you unforgettable in the best way.

Self-assessment:

1. Do my words leave others feeling healed or wounded?


2. Am I learning when to speak, when to pause, and when to remain silent?


3. Are my conversations seasoned with grace, or do I often react harshly?

Negative Effect of Testing a Man or Playing with his Intelligence or Heart during Dating

Testing a man or playing with his intelligence or heart during dating can have serious consequences that may carry over into a future marriage, leading to a host of negative outcomes. When you engage in such behavior, it can create a foundation of distrust, emotional pain, and misunderstanding that can be difficult to overcome. Imagine you’re in a relationship where you’re constantly testing your partner's intentions, questioning his sincerity, and trying to gauge how much he truly cares for you. While this might seem like a way to protect yourself or to ensure that his feelings are genuine, it can actually undermine the very relationship you’re trying to build. Proverbs 14:1 says, "The wise woman builds her house, but with her own hands the foolish one tears hers down." By testing a man’s heart, you might unintentionally be tearing down the trust and connection that are essential for a healthy relationship. When you test a man's intelligence or play with his emotions...

Message for Godly Women

In a world that often emphasizes marriage as the ultimate goal for women, it's essential to remember our inherent worth and the unique purpose that God has designed for each of us. While marriage is undoubtedly a beautiful aspect of life, it is not the sole measure of our value or fulfillment. As Godly women, we are called to recognize and embrace the original purpose and assignment that God has placed upon our lives. Marriage may be a phase, but it is not the entirety of our existence. Our identity and significance are rooted in our relationship with our Creator, not in our marital status. Too often, societal pressures and cultural expectations lead us to prioritize finding a spouse above all else. We may even find ourselves building our entire future around the idea of marriage, neglecting the unique gifts, talents, and passions that God has entrusted to us. But let us remember that God has created each of us with a divine purpose, one that extends far beyond the confines of marr...
