I was feeling really bad about having to speak the truth in love to a dear friend of mine. She has not been in touch with me since then. I will continue to trust God in all of this.

Their tone with me was so harsh that I could not receive what they were saying. What they spoke was truth but the tone I said it in put so much condemnation on me I could not receive the truth. Speaking at love is not saying you listen to me you should not be speaking that way, No wonder they wouldn't have anything to do with you, You have been the trouble all alone If you had acted that way around me I would have had you to have left the property. In then they would "this scripture. I couldn't help but cry for I had never heard this scripture before either. My true friends correct me in so much love and gentleness I never have to cry and I never put my guard up. This person chop me off at the knees. And then I had asked them several times were is this scripture at, They said well open your Bible to proverbs in read it for yourself. Well I finally found it is still didn't understand the true meaning. For I had never had anyone to say that they are helping me and breaking my heart at the same time. I believe the truth should be spoken but in gentleness and in love. I have a dear friend who has told me corrections before and I have never reacted negatively by what I have been told I need to change. By their love and Gentleness I was able to receive and work on the change. With God's help I have come a million miles. I believe we always need to speak the truth in gentleness and in love. Thank you for your post very refreshing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10003201080018538630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8796384346441141954.post-56597596532036348852019-12-23T09:02:48.231-08:002019-12-23T09:02:48.231-08:00Beautiful blog.

Share in love, not in judgment. Judgment creates shame and defensiveness. Kindness creates connection. Connection is needed for insight building.
