Dear Friend,
A pastor in Dublin once formed a mutual encouragement group at a time of stress in his large urban parish.
The members subscribed to a simple formula applied before speaking of any person or subject that was perhaps controversial.
T Is it true?
H Is it helpful?
I Is it inspiring?
N Is it necessary?
K Is it kind?
Msgr. O'Brien told the group, "If what I am about to say does not pass those tests, I will keep my mouth shut!" And it worked!
Pray always and never lose heart.
