Open Mouth Insert Foot- We Need to Learn to Think....

By
Real Estate Agent with Century 21 Beal, Inc College Station, Texas

 I think that from time to time we all say or comment on things that we wish we could take back.

I know I have.  Sunday's sermon was a great example.  It was about controlling our tongue. (Bloggers can

add fingers to that.  We need to control those too.) My pastor Bro. Tim Owens,  stated that we could use

the letters in Think to remember to watch what we say.

Before you talk or type ask yourself if it is-

T- Truthful

H-Helpful

I-Inspirational

N-Necessary

K-Kind

I thought that was great even though I will be talking a lot less. :)

Brenda, sometimes the best thing we can say is NOTHING.  In other words, I need to BE QUIET and LISTEN to someone else.  Great tip, thanks for sharing!  This would be a great blog post for the "Christianity" group.

This blog is now featured at http://activerain.com/groups/virtualoffice - congrats!
