Proverb of the Day.

Proverb of the Day

By our, hopefully, wise and kind words, as well as the diligent, honest work of our hands, we are known and receive the reward from our LORD.  In my 12 Step Program, I learned a saying to direct our speech:

Now, the last question about improving the silence is one I just now saw and loved!

Do I live by these questions?  Not all the time, but I'm working on it.  I really am.  Perhaps I need to post this image, along with this one around my house to remind me.

Imagine if we could take hold of every thought and hold it to this standard as well!  Perhaps by doing this we can be as Nelson Mandela:

I would love to be free from the 

prison on anger, hatred, bitterness and unforgiveness, 

wouldn't you? 

I would love to earn the reward of 

roaming in the meadows of serenity, 

love, and forgiveness, wouldn't you?

Definitely a goal worth working for.  

Dear Friend, this is my truth!
