Stop Before You React

Stop β€’ Think β€’ Set the Boundary Β· Scripture: James 1:19

STOP

Take one breath before you answer. One breath can change a whole day.

THINK

Reacting is automatic. Responding is a choice β€” and choices belong to you.

SET THE BOUNDARY

I will give myself a pause before I speak or send.

PRAY

God, slow me down. Give me a steady heart when I feel provoked.

TALK IT OUT

A friend posts something about you that isn't true, and your thumbs are already moving.

Your answer stays on this page and is never shared.

TAKE ACTION

Practice the 10-second pause once today before you respond to something that stings.
