DAY 79
To Overlook an Offense Is Glory
기원전 10~6세기 편집 (히브리 지혜문학)
ORIGINAL
שֵׂכֶל אָדָם הֶאֱרִיךְ אַפּוֹ וְתִפְאַרְתּוֹ עֲבֹר עַל־פָּשַׁע
📜 THE VERSE
A person's wisdom yields patience; it is to one's glory to overlook an offense.
❓ TODAY'S QUESTION
Reacting to every small fault, am I the one being made small?
📝Reflection
One who bristles at every small rudeness only wears himself out. This verse does not merely say endure — it flips it, calling the overlooking a glory. The power to let something pass is not weakness but spaciousness. Not every fault needs to be seized upon. Letting some things simply go by makes me the larger person.

Let one small slight that brushes you today simply pass, without seizing on it.
