ouch

Proverbs 16.28
a troublemaker plants seeds of strife; gossip seperates the best of friends.

Proverbs 15.1
a gentle answer turns away wrath, but harsh words stir up anger.

God help me to watch my words better. Help me be a friend that others can confide in.

feels like this issue has been on and off since I was a kid. It's almost an hourly decision. I want to be WAY better at this than I have been.

it's not always.. But it is often. And I wanna work on tipping this in the butt.

so anyone can feel free to call me out on it! Accountability is very necessary for growing!

Your process will inspire many others!! God has a plan and purpose and I'm excited to walk through life with you as a friend watching what God does!!! This is where I can see the pure joy from trials as James talks about, fascinating paradox, but it's soooo true!! i love the way God works!!!
