“一句坏话也不可出口，却要适当地说造就人的好话，使听见的人得益处。”
以弗所书 4:29
“Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.”
Ephesians 4:29
The goal in communication is not just clarity. Neither is the goal just to be understood. The goal is not even just to be truthful. The goal is to be appropriate, encouraging, and uplifting to others based on the needs of that other person.
Regardless whether it's to our partner, family, colleagues, friends or acquaintances, do we watch our words or do we just spout out words, irregardless of whether it's going to be hurtful or not? Have we been using words to tear down others?
How have we been communicating to others?
