WHEN YOU SHOULD NOT SPEAK....

JUST THINKING

Don't speak when you are anxious, you may end up saying the wrong things, taking wrong decisions or agreeing to things you may regret forever.

If Speak when you're angry, you'll make the best speech you'll ever regret!!

If some people want to get anyone to tell secrets from that person, they get him drunk. A drunk is a good source for getting information. So, be careful of alcohol because it makes you say things you may regret later on.

When a man or a woman is in love, he behaves like a sixteen year old and he speaks sheepishly. Love makes you speak even when you are not supposed to and what you are not supposed to say.

When a person is heavily pressed.  He calls the name of Jesus even if he does not believe in HIM. I am not talking about you. I am just telling you what people have gone through and how they have, spoken, danced, walked and stood still because they were pressed. When a person is pressed, it is better he keeps quiet because if he does speak, he may end up embarrassing himself.

Speaking when you are very, very hungry, exposes things about you.  A hungry man can tell a baby, “Yes ma" and even sell his birthday right.  Hunger is not good but speaking when you are hungry, could be disastrous.

A guilty person speaks even without being questioned. They reveal the cause of their guilt easily. The guilt in them finds expressions or exposes them when they see someone they fear, love and respect.

Also, I don't envy people who speak while they are asleep.  They usually reveal skeletons in their cupboard.

If you a loquacious person or a compulsive talker, clap for yourself.  You can’t control your tongue and as a result, you spill beans.

Story tellers, gossips and writers like me say things without thinking. We express ourselves even at the detriment of our privacy and that of others.

Some pastors met and they decided to share their weaknesses. One said he can't control his lust, the other said he can't control his anger, another said he can't control his fingers when he sees money.  The last person said, I can’t control my tongue about anything I hear and see.

Proverbs 10:19 CEV

You will say the wrong thing if you talk too much— so be sensible and watch what you say.
