KTN: Kind, True, Necessary

KIND:
Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see. ~Mark Twain

The kindest word in all the world is the unkind word, unsaid. ~Author Unknown

When a woman tells the truth she is creating the possibility for more truth around her. –Adrienne Rich

Philippians 4:4-8:
“Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, but prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable –if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about (speak/talk about) such things.”



TRUE:
If it is not right do not do it; if it is not true do not say it.
-Marcus Aurelius

Truth is a deep kindness that teaches us to be content in our everyday life and share with the people the same happiness.
–Kahlil Gibron


Truthfulness is the main element of character
-Brian Tracy

What people say, what people do, and what they say they do are entirely different things.
-Margaret Meade
(I (Sarah) think this is what we as Christian women should strive to not be known as. We should say and do equally. What we say and should be the same. We should/need to walk what we talk.)

Proverbs 21:6 “A fortune made by a lying tongue is a fleeting vapor and a deadly snare”





NECESSARY:
Preach the Gospel at all times and when necessary use words.
-St. Francis of Assisi


We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak. ~Epictetus

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
~Leo Buscaglia
