Posted on January 12, 2015 by apronheadlilly

There are some words that should never be said because even if they are true, they can burn bridges. Some true things need only be prayed.

Lovely picture but am not sure whether I agree with your words.

  Truth is certainly important to me, but sometimes relationship is more important for the long term, at least in my thinking.

I wish I had never said those words to my sister-in-law!

  It is hard. Often wish we had re-do’s.

And the internet is the worst place to ever say those truths! I am struggling right now to forgive a person who has used the internet to post too many private things. Even so far as to copy a portion of an email of mine to her blog.

  It is a crazy world. So many advantages with resource and connectedness to the Web, but dangers and pitfalls, too. 😦

    I guess I could do with less connectedness…you know this. Human relationships are hard enough with our sinful natures, but the internet amplifies things tremendously.

THAT is a tough truth to learn — and its even harder to practice because it requires you to be slow to speak & consider the long-term before the moment — habits that take time to form!:)

  We so often think that being “right” gives us license to tell all, but Lord, help us to love in silence first and be right second.
