Speech - Hannah

Wow.  Words.  I love words..sometimes I am too full of them, sometimes I'm without them...words are powerful.  This chapter was a good reminder of being quick to listen and slow to speak...so often I speak out of frustration- which doesn't build anyone up.  Ann, I liked how you read it as permission to be quiet sometimes..and I agree...sometimes I think we can über still and just listen.
I have a lot to work on from this chapter...sometimes in anger or frustration it is easier to ter down than build up- it was a good reminder to watch what I say.

"You don't have to nag." "You don't have to be proved right."  Whoa...pride comes into play here..nagging when things don't get done..or feeling like I have to be told I'm right -what a reminder / reality check- Hannah, you need to set back and honor God and others with your words.

I pray that we all be quick to listen and slow to speak in all circumstance.  Love you girlies.
