Thoughts on life and ministry with a hint of randomness.

Nothing is easier than saying words. Nothing is harder than living them day after day.Arthur Gordon

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.
- “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
- “Among my most prized possessions are words that I have never spoken.” - Orson Rega Card
- “By swallowing evil words unsaid, no one has ever harmed his stomach.” - Winston Churchill
- “Speak when you are angry and you will make the best speech you will ever regret.” - Ambrose Bierce
- “If you wouldn’t write it and sign it, don’t say it.” - Earl Wilson
- “The more the words, the less the meaning, and how does that profit anyone?” - King Solomon
- “Never miss a good chance to shut up.” – Will Rogers
