Sarah Mae over at Like A Warm Cup of Coffee has written a post about how to share our opinions. I was inspired, reminded and pleased. She quotes many verses from Proverbs to support her points and has very valid arguments. Give it a read. Here are the highlights:
1. What are your motives?
2. Use wisdom and care
3. Be cautious.
4. Be humble.
5. Use a soft tone.
6. Are the circumstances right?
7. Use discernment before you speak.
8. Be confident.
I struggle with, or rather, I don’t struggle with sharing my opinion. lol. I don’t follow all these guidelines and I get myself in trouble with friends and family. Always my motives are because I care, because I think they are misinformed, and because I don’t want them to learn the hard way, like I have. Am I a know-it-all? I hope I don’t come across that way; because I don’t know it all at all. After that first point though, I need a little work.
So glad I read that post!
Learning to live my life with purpose,
