Say the wrong thing anytime never works.
Say the right thing at the wrong time doesn't work.
Say the right thing at the right time has a chance.
Just because someone needs to hear something does not mean that you have to tell them right when you think you need to say it. The person may simply dismiss what you have to say or not hear you correctly. Find an opportunity to present the situation to them respectfully and lovingly. They may have a more positive reception for your words.
Build them up with construction don't tear them down with criticism.
Think before you speak.
Never under estimate anything that you don't know about. The things that we think we believe may have been conceived through our own fallible reasoning. Believable reasoning is not necessarily correct thinking.
They say when you pray to God, go to your alone place. So I went and this is what i saw.
This place was over an hour hike from my car. I put my bible in my pack along with some water. I went there for the sole purpose of spending time in prayer with God. I expected nothing but a view that might remind of the greatness of God. I was just sitting down when this site appeared. I wondered about what I was seeing. Is anyone else seeing this? I thought. The longer I remained in prayer the closer the sun came. After I had finished I stood to my feet and as I collected myself for the journey back the sun spot just disappeared. Maybe this was just a gift for me.
For a perspective, the pine tree next to the trail is 25 ft high. The hill I'm standing on is 165 ft above the water level. The sun spot stayed for over 25 minits coming closer to shore the longer it stayed.
