Pointed remarks

Here's something to think about today -

"Do not pay attention to every word people say or you may hear your servant cursing you -- for you know in your heart that many times you yourself have cursed others." (Ecclesiastes 7:21-22, NIV)

The Message puts it like this -

"Don't eavesdrop on the conversation of others. What if the gossip's about you and you'd rather not hear it? You've done that a few times, haven't you - said things behind someone's back you wouldn't say to his face?"
