After you’ve said it…

I just want to remind you that after you’ve said something, posted something, emailed something or mailed something it is out of your hands.

You have no idea who may eventually read it or hear of it.

What you meant may not be what is interpreted.

People who quote you may not have your best interest at heart.

People who read you may not do so for the right reasons.

I remind you of this, not to frighten you into not speaking your mind, but I do think it wise to open your mouth with your eyes open also.

 

Proverbs 15:28 (NLT)

28 The heart of the godly thinks carefully before speaking; the mouth of the wicked overflows with evil words.
