Title: T.H.I.N.K.
Post by: Don on June 26, 2011, 12:55:18 PM

The heart of the righteous studies how to answer, but the mouth of the wicked pours forth evil.  Proverbs 15:28

T-H-I-N-K

Alan Redpath, former pastor at Moody Memorial Church in Chicago (1953-1962), recommended that we give ourselves a "think before you speak" test by asking ourselves five questions:

T: "Is it True?"
H: "Is it Helpful?"
I: "Is it Inspiring?"   
N: "Is it Necessary?"
K: "Is it Kind?"

If what we're about to say doesn't pass this test, it's best to keep quiet.
