Art of Listening

There are moments in our lives that call for few words. We must choose the SERVICE of simply listening. In this sense, it is true, “Less is more.”

“Set a guard, O Lord, over my mouth; keep watch over the door of my lips!”

(Psalm141:3)

“There is one whose rash words are like sword thrusts, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.” (Proverbs 12:18)

“Whoever restrains his words has knowledge, and he who has a cool spirit is a man of understanding. Even a fool who keeps silent is considered wise; when he closes his lips, he is deemed intelligent.” (Proverbs 17:27-28)

“For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.” (Matthew 12:34)
