(Eccl 3:7 NKJV) A time to tear, And a time to sew; A time to keep silence, And a time to speak…
There are times when we need to keep silent. This is easy for those that don’t mind being quiet in the midst of a storm. Some people don’t really care to talk about anything; they like to listen and take everything in. But for those that have a mouth and like to use it, well this verse may hit home.
There is a balance to everything and we need to understand that God can and will bring balance to us. We are not too far gone to where He cannot help us.
There are times to keep silent; this simply means that we don’t always get to speak when we think we should or FEEL like it, or when someone makes us mad or challenges us. There is a time to be still and let Him deliver us without us opening our mouths!!
Then there are times when we need to speak, whether we feel like it or not. We need to stand up and be strong and say what God has placed in our hearts to say.
We want to make sure we get God’s wisdom, understanding and that we wait on His timing.
