Use your words wisely.
This is a tribute to the Great God that leads even when it may 'seem' not so. At first glance, people might think
my early life was 'not good' since the woman (of the couple) that adopted me hated me and told me this,
not quite directly, but you could easily put it together. I Couldn't actually figure out what she was saying,
and moved on, being younger.
In the house, I had absolutely no privacy at all, and everything was checked out, monitored severely and if
anything was 'off', she repeatedly told the man (I actually thought they were my parents, as this was
hidden from me for years). The man for his part was most definitely under her thumb (in retrospect), but
when he could, he respected me. He TAUGHT me, and CORRECTED me constantly about language.
All words had to be correct or I was corrected, and corrected. Many kids would hate that, but I just
corrected and went on. Never thought differently. He was a teacher and I thought a good one,
and I respected him. I held no view on the woman as it was 'chilly' around her.
But, in retrospect, now, I am delighted because I absolutely KNOW we are watched by spirits, maybe
too by their various 5G type things. People also are watching. This is to condemn us.
Because of this excellent, but rigorous (harsh?) upbringing, I learned to watch my words.
Every word has to pass through my 'belief filter' now. Words can do wonderful things,
or for others, terrible things.
Any sincere Christian doesn't want to be hurtful to others. Yet, what to do when provoked?
What to do when insulted or the array of other possibilities? Lie down, roll over and 'play dead'?
How good is it for the abuses, accuser to 'get away with it'? I suggest it's not good to let them
hurt you, or 'win'.
The biggest benefit my upbringing instilled in me was 'not reacting'. As one person put it,
being 'proactive'. Wanting always to be helpful regardless of what they did or said,
I would actually ask them to tell me more sometimes. This is always a judgement call.
You'll find on social media that many people are hurtful, not careful and when I see
people running down the bible, or the Lord, or those following the Lord, I reply to them.
I try to point out to them what they're conveying, and how inaccurate they often are.
These kinds of things often happen on Youtube, and the comments may have these
things. I don't think it's good to let these atheists have full sway, and be abusive,
run down Christians, and whatever else they do.
And, the exciting thing is I can always improve in those areas.
Living in Canada where there's just so much that is against the bible,
for example, you can look at Youtube and see the male student going to
a Catholic school where the CATHOLIC SCHOOL called the police and
had him arrested for saying he followed what the bible taught regarding
male and female. The SCHOOL, the one that supposedly believes in
the bible, phoned, and this young man was ARRESTED and HANDCUFFED
and will have a CRIMINAL RECORD and be fined and kept in prison for this.
You can find this on Youtube. Send to your friends. I just don't see or hear
the Christian churches rising up, defending this young man. So quiet.
We must ALL PRACTICE, though, just HOW to OPPOSE 'the devil's teachings',
how to carefully delineate through these mine fields.
Jordan Peterson is currently in a big battle for things he said on the
'Joe Rogan' show (a popular host), and on Twitter. As Jordan said,
he has millions of happy people who are delighted with what he said,
and there are about TEN lawsuits from unhappy people.
Since it's the College levying these lawsuits, then we know they are paying
these people's legal fees. None of the complaints were from any clients
he had or students he taught, or psychologists he trained.
So, it IS a minefield in Canada, and this topic is MANDATORY to learn how to
speak in this kind of environment. Most people won't SAY anything, and then
the heads just get away with more, and Christians are stifled.
I choose to learn how to speak. That doesn't mean absolutely nothing bad will
ever happen. But, as our Lord said, 'Lose your life for MY SAKE'....and that's
what counts.
We want to think of every word as a $100 bill, and we want this word to work out.
We are in a war, and it's getting clearer and clearer that this is so.
So, this is very timely and courses should be taught on it, examples of how
people should tackle different things.
There's a man in Canada, is it Ontario?...who opposed his young son's 'transitioning', was the son 14?, I think.
He has been fined over $30,000, is I think being jailed for this, and more. Think of the stress,
the anxiety, the horror of this!! What a black, bleak world is Canada today.
I suggest if we could read the transcripts, this father was not wise, did not 'watch' his words.
Yes, he'd be seriously pushed, but once we can step outside ourselves, and we CAN (it takes
practice), and watch ourselves, and see the effect, we just can do better. I'm in no way
criticizing this poor man who never had to encounter such a thing. But shouldn't we at
least try to learn from this and other tragedies?
Words spoken cannot be retracted. Wrong words have been known to ruin marriages.
So, again, very wise and good counsel given just at this time.
