Reflection for September 5, 2014

"Let your word be Yes, Yes or no, no anything more than this comes from the evil one."(Matthew 5:37)

Have you ever been told it is a simple yes or no question?   I often think nothing is ever a simple yes or no.  I'd like to give some thought before giving an answer.  Eventually every request made of us or by us needs a yes or a no.

We know that saying yes when we really mean no usually puts us in an awkward place.  Saying no, when we really could have and should have is also problematic.

If we can get ourselves to a place of saying yes, when we really mean yes, and no when we really mean no, and following through and sticking with our decisions life is a lot smoother.

Blessings,
Ed
