Speak the Truth in Love

True health is all about balance. Speaking the truth in love is never easy, but always right. The issue is finding the balance. Too many people camp out on one of the two extremes. Many folks are so "honest and blunt" that they are not respected and hurt relationships. Others are so "loving" that they talk all around but never get to the issue. Make sure you seek to speak truth into your own life first and then you will be prepared to examine if you love people enough to do the hard thing and tell them the truth.  Make sure thought that the truth truly comes from a heart of love for their well being or they will not care about what you share. Know one cares what you know until they know that you care. Confrontation is always hard, and if you enjoy it you may need some therapy, but on the other hand do you truthfully love someone enough to do the hard thing?
