Life Lesson #2

The success of your personal life is more important than the success of your professional life.

Life Lesson #1

Be more concerned about who you are and who are becoming than by where you are at and where you are going.

When life gives you a lemon… make lemonade. When a door closes… turn it into a ping pong table.

Me and My Big Mouth

Today we started a new series entitled “HUSH” at People’s Church. Proverbs 17:28 says, “Even fools are thought wise when they keep silent; with their mouths shut, they seem intelligent”. Our words are very important. So to keep in theme with our current series I thought I would share seven sayings that remind us that sometimes the smartest thing we can say is nothing. 

  1. “Half the world is composed of people who have something to say and can’t, and the other half who have nothing to say and keep on saying it.” - Robert Frost
  2. “Among my most prized possessions are words that I have never spoken.” - Orson Rega Card
  3. “By swallowing evil words unsaid, no one has ever harmed his stomach.” - Winston Churchill
  4. “Speak when you are angry and you will make the best speech you will ever regret.” - Ambrose Bierce
  5. “If you wouldn’t write it and sign it, don’t say it.” - Earl Wilson
  6. “The more the words, the less the meaning, and how does that profit anyone?” - King Solomon
  7. “Never miss a good chance to shut up.” – Will Rogers
