I was glad I got the chance to see this post. I love Nancy Lee DeMoss. I have read a few of her books. I know what you mean about he talking part. I am always telling my boys...if you have nothing nice to say then don't say anything at all!<br /><br />Recently we were at coop and my 11 year old shared something with me that he felt really bad about. He was sitting next to a friend (he had only known this boy for a few weeks but was really clicking with him) He turned to the boy and pointed to a much older girl in the coop and said "Boy, she is kinda ugly" His friend giggled and said "Man, that's my sister!"<br /><br />Talk about sticking your foot in your mouth! Lucky for my son the boy thought it was funny, but I used this opportunity to stress to him that if it is simply not nice, don't say it! He said he has definately learned his lesson. I can only hope :)Donna(mom24boyz)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06893314713352399022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6083284564509209798.post-8230185631526201382009-08-12T17:33:28.993-04:002009-08-12T17:33:28.993-04:00"It's funny, I used to think I knew every..."It's funny, I used to think I knew everything, and no one could teach me anything, lol! My thinking has really changed."<br /><br />Ain't that the truth!!<br /><br />Gossip is definitely easy to do without even realizing it. There's very good reason to listen more and talk less I'd say. <br /><br />Thanks for your thoughts again this week!Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12045517118866436340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6083284564509209798.post-1891080211799519542009-08-12T14:16:48.277-04:002009-08-12T14:16:48.277-04:00Such wonderful words, wonderfully written!

And so many Christians do it in the name of concern and "prayer requests." It's a tricky, tricky business.<br /><br />I loved lesson 24 ~ older women teaching younger women. I didn't enjoy quite so much having Nancy point out that we shouldn't necessarily wait for an opportunity to present itself and that <i>we</i> should take the initiative ~ whether to mentor or BE mentored ~ but I thought she had some great encouraging thoughts.tammihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03803890115567631062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6083284564509209798.post-59523897923800384802009-08-11T19:33:32.951-04:002009-08-11T19:33:32.951-04:00Such important words Nancy.
