Being Outspoken

Sometimes I am sure people are not sure they can be outspoken if the main objective is being an encouragement. I think though that at times it is important to be outspoken. People need to know where we are coming from on different issues. Though being outspoken sounds negative to some it can be positive instead.

The most important thing we can be is encouragers however people need to know that we have concerns about certain issues as well. Other words because we are encouragers don’t mean we are pushover either.

In fact I have to say issues bring us into areas where we feel things real strong. Passion is the reason we are encouragers as well. People are important to us so issues should be as well. So speak your mind where people know where you are coming from and being outspoken means that you care about people well as the issues that you’re passionate about.

Although it is important to be outspoken I still feel it is important to think what you are going to say before you say it. I believe too many people can speak with anger and not being thoughtful of others either. This is especially true with those that will not agree with what you believe. I hope this will help us all out when we talk with others. This includes when we are speaking encouragement as well. Have yourself a great weekend and make a difference in others’ lives. Amen!
