Do You Have a Personal
Testimony about Jesus?
By Rev. Tony Elder
As I listened to the
tributes given to baseball
legend Hank Aaron upon
his recent death, I was
reminded that I was
privileged not just to
know about him as a fig
ure from the past but to
have witnessed his ex
ploits and to have been
impacted by them.
I grew up in the At
lanta area as a youngster
at just the right age to
idolize such a sports
hero during the prime of
his career. I was there in
the stadium on a few oc
casions to see him hit
some of his round-trip
pers. I was there glued to
my TV set the night he
hit his record-breaking
shot. I experienced regu

Controlling
Our Tongues
“The one who has knowledge
uses words with restraint, and
whoever has understanding is
even-tempered. Even fools are
thought wise if they keep silent,
and discerning if they hold
their tongues. ”
- Proverbs 18:27-28 NIV
I t can be difficult to hold our
tongue when someone says
something we disagree with,
and even more so when they say
something which we know is
wrong. But the desire to have our
say on every subject and on every
occasion is pure egoism. When
people want your opinion, they will
generally ask for it, and if you have
noticed that no one is asking for
your opinion, that may be a sign
that it isn’t wanted, or that they
trust you will give your opinion
unasked on every occasion. It is
almost always better to leave others
wanting more rather than less of
our opinions. Of course, there are
times when it is wise to speak up,
but we learn more from listening
than we do from speaking. A good
rule of thumb is to listen twice as
much as we speak, and to be aware
of how much we are talking when
in conversation. The philosopher
Epictetus put it this way: “We have
two ears and one mouth so that we
can listen twice as much as we
speak.” A wise person considers
the context of whatever situation
they are in when considering how
much they should talk. A job
interview calls for something
different than a university lecture
or a casual conversation. And when
in doubt, hold your tongue. We
more often regret something we
said than something we did not say.
