Insight for Today
Written by Chuck Swindoll, these encouraging devotional thoughts are published seven days per week.
The Tongue of the Wise, Part Two
There’s a TV ad for a first-aid ointment that says, “Stop hurting...start healing.” Another offers a bandage that takes the “ouch” away. That’s good counsel. Let’s be gentle and sensitive when we are touching the tender feelings of others.
The Tongue of the Wise, Part One
Wisely labelled “the saving virtue,” tact graces a life like fragrance graces a rose. One whiff of those red petals erases any memory of the thorns.

Don’t expect pats on the back or great waves of applause. Not today.

The Turning Point, Part Two
“I want to know Him. I also want to model the power outflowing from His Resurrection. And I certainly want to be continually transformed into His likeness... which requires accepting my share of suffering.”
The Turning Point, Part One
Looking back, I distinctly remember the turning point. No heavenly vision caused my attitude to change. My resentment toward God didn’t decrease because of some audible voice in the night. I can trace the acceptance of my circumstance and the shift of my focus to a single verse of Scripture.
