Think twice before you Speak & Forgive Quickly

Ecclesiastes 7:20 

Indeed, there is no one on earth who is righteous,no one who does what is right and never sins.21 DO NOT PAY ATTENTION TO EVERY WORD PEOPLE SAY ,or you may hear your servant cursing you—22 for YOU KNOW YOURSELF THE MANY TIMES YOU YOURSELF HAVE CURSED OTHERS.

Isn't it ironic that when someone says something hurtful to us, we're immediately offended & we replay it over & over in our minds. But the moment we say something hurtful, we feel justified & think "well I said this or that because. ."

Today, we are reminded that NO ONE on Earth is righteous & we've ALL committed sins. When someone has hurt our feelings, lets FORGIVE them immediately, remembering that at one point we've also done the offending. We will live a much happier life if & when we think twice before we speak & learn to forgive quickly.

Have a PEACEFUL Day
