Graceful speech
"If someone is gossiping to you about another person, you can rest assured she is gossiping to others about you."
-from Lela commented on the Gossip series on Be Not Conformed
"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things."
-Philippians 4:8
"Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man."-Colossians 4:6

Yes...He's been driving this home with me with blogging topics and comments and what He desires. Holy conversation, good conversation, conversation in heaven, upright conversation, ordered of the Lord conversation, former and corrupt conversation put off, honest conversation, chaste conversation...it's good to quietly learn as He teaches Who is God. And good to be encouraged by others He encourages.
I think as women, we have the hardest time with this. Thank you for the reminder :-)
