I'm Just Saying...

"Everyone enjoys a fitting reply; it is wonderful to say the right thing at the right time!" Proverbs 15:23

Have you ever talked before you thought? 
You know what I mean? Those times when you are having a physical or emotional reaction before getting the other side of the story?
There is nothing redeemable after those moments of outbursts and lack of wisdom. It's painful and it kind of reminds me of a small child who doesn't understand and drops down kicking and screaming. Not a pretty sight. Yep, I have had those moments... "I'm Just Saying"

I chose this scripture because it really reveals the truth of a good conversation. Listening and then speaking the fitted word. You know the right response instead of an outburst of random words. Yes, we are talking about being disciplined and thoughtful.

So how about we try and take the challenge to make the effort to say the right thing, at the right time! Yes, we are going to need God's help and maybe a bit more thinking before speaking but just think about the wonderful results!

It can bring a real sense of peace and joy into this life's journey... Traveling Light
