Words, Lots of Words. But What Kind?

By Paula

words lots of words but what kind title graphic

You will say lots of words this week.
You will likely hear even more. Consider this:

The lips of the wise broadcast knowledge, but not so the heart of fools. Proverbs 15:7

The wise broadcast, disperse, spread
Knowledge, wisdom, good advice.

Be wise.
Listen to the wise.

But, in contrast

The heart of fools.

Beware of things said in the heat of passion
Whether anger, elation, fear or other strong emotions.

Be careful what you say in those moments.
Carefully weigh what others say.

Take the time to sort through the words and the emotions to get to the wisdom.
