“He who covers a transgression seeks love, but he who repeats a matter separates friends.” -Proverbs 17:9 When we love someone and they do something that doesn’t quite agree with us, we may think, “That’s just her way” or “Let’s give him the benefit of the doubt” or “They messed up, but they meant well,” and then drop the matter and not talk about it. On the other hand, if someone we don’t like did the same thing, we might say something much differently, expressing our disapproval and freely share our disdain with others. Wha...

“A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger,” Proverbs 15:1. Anger may be justified or not, but how we deal with it reveals our motives. Do we want to push someone’s hot button, or dial down the emotion in hopes of reaching a good outcome? It has been said that we often speak before we think. One key to developing the ability to respond with a soft answer is to think about it ahead of time. When someone comes to you in anger, annoyance, or irritation, plan to slow down, think before speaking, and make... Full story

“The words of a talebearer are like tasty trifles, And they go down into the inmost body.” -Proverbs 18:8 Oh my, this proverb is too true! How often have we listened with smacking lips enjoying some little word of gossip like a tasty truffle?

Like the old saying says, “A moment on the lips, a lifetime on the hips.” Once we have enjoyed that tasty morsel and swallow...

“He who has knowledge spares his words, and a man of understanding is of a calm spirit.” -Proverbs 17:27 When a person has a good understanding of a subject, they have a calm spirit because they know that they are on solid ground, and can speak on a subject with authority. They often speak without using superlatives and inflammatory words. With some people, the less they know about a subject, the more they go on and on. It is obvious to everyone around them that they know little, are in over their head, agitated by their unc...

My mother-in-law once said, “Never pass up the opportunity to keep your mouth shut.” When I heeded that bit of wisdom, I have been glad, when I did not, I often wished that I had. Contrary to some popular psychology which encourages people to express themselves and tell people how they really feel, keeping one’s opinions to yourself and allowing time to bring reason before speaking will often eliminate unwelcome circumstances. When another person is angry or frustrated and venting at you, your choice of words and the way t... Full story
