“Think before you speak!” is good advice.
What
about “Think before you write?” Not a
bad idea either. And I would add to that, “Pray before you write.”
I’ve
seen far too much writing launched out into the world these days with nary a
thought or prayer as to whether or not the words are true, helpful and
gracious.
Paul
exhorted the people of Ephesus to “
lovingly follow the truth at all times—speaking truly, dealing truly, living
truly—and so become more and more in every way like Christ who is the Head of
his body, the Church.” (Ephesians 4:15-16 TLB)
