CLOSED MOUTH OR CLOSED HAND (455 hits)


Speak up! How so many times we go about the day wanting to say something yet, we never take that exact moment to speak up! There are times we do need to retain our quiet, just as there are times we need also to speak up. Opportunity may cause you to wait expecially if the moment passes on by you, and many times you wished you had said something, [present company included.] You have to open your mouth to eat, otherwise you'll get hungry sooner; or later. "If you do ask of something, you might not never receive it."

Then there are times too; when we wished we had opened our hand. Opened hands receive and give gifts, open hands work and attend to duties needing attention. An opened hand will get paid because it holds out to grasp. If your hand is closed in a fist-- the reward will fall onto the ground. These are things of reasons and may help us understand : "We have not because we do not ask, and we received not because we do not open up."

A quote for these may go as follows:

"A closed mouth, won't get fed." "A closed hand, never gets paid."

"Open wide"

I'm done.

We need wisdom to know when to speak and when not to speak --- something I definitely have asked God to help me on. Great blog and very insightful. Yes lawd knows we have to open our mouths to eat!

Tough call.

Some people talk too much and say things they shouldn't.

And some people don't say what they need to say.

It think it comes down to personal character and temperament. It might even be a matter opf content--what is in their minds that they think is so important to say?

Some people should speak up more--and some people should really shut up!!!

I think we do have to have reasoning and wisdom of when to speak..and when to as Brother Rich said : "really shut up!!!" Some people go on and go on until they can become a nuiance to others --and making a avoidence of themselves. Yak! Yak! Yak! Blaw! Blaw! These persons characters and mouths need a muggle!

Glad to have your comments...They are truly welcomed. I'm hushing up now.
