I am asking that each and every one of us, think before we speak. Remember we each and everyone are called apon to represent God's Love through Jesus. If we are openingly showing contempt and disregard for each others opinion, how can we represent Jesus? This is just a thought I wanted you guys to know God Bless you and keep you safe in His arms Anne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By my troth, brethren, shall we not counsel together in love? If ye be not loving, pray, say naught at all! For sharp are the fangs of spiteful words, and in them poison which wouldst curdle blood. Hear me, sisters: Let us henceforth sheathe our wordy daggers, which hath flashed so cunningly hitherto. I pray you, brothers, speak no more of things which quarrels bring. For quarrels breed melancholy, and melancholy more quarrels. Hereafter, let us no longer speak to move the sword, but to move the heart. Come, let us have some music. Here's a song of love that would brighten the heart of a grave-digger! [sings] *grin* OK...I won't talk like that anymore...but the whole thing about speaking lovingly is still true.

We should just bite our tongues on certain subjects, of course tempers will flare, but never lose site on what is most important, and that is our L-rd and Savior Yeshua/Jesus/Christ/Messiah/Son of G-d......Every day I focus on Him, and my life has been wonderful ever since I have done that. Bad things still happen to me, but I put my trust in Yeshua to take care of me. All glory to Yeshua. Aaron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are also interruptions when I am typing up messages that can throw me off and I loose my train of thought. I am 92% certain that things would be a lot different if we were face to face over a cuppa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
