How to Postively Respond in Life Critical Conversations?

 Responding Rightly To People

 

.

 

 

Col. 4:6 “Let your conversation be gracious and attractive so that you have the right response for everyone.”

 

How can we respond rightly to people who are speaking to us concerning their concerns, or needs whether it is positive or negative?

 

The Bible words states that when we respond to people needs we must be gracious and attractive.

What is gracious responding? We respond kindly with a kindly spirit. What is attractive speaking? Jesus said, “Have salt in yourselves” Luke 14:34 it the wholesomeness we speak. We need to speak with wisdom, gracious and salt.

Sometimes we get so wrapped in our needs than their needs. We want to be heard first.

I firmly believe that at times need to listen more than talk. How can we do this? We need to focus on people’s words, facial expressions and their body language. We need to speak slowly, lowly, and listen. We need be sensitive to our tone and our pitch as we speak to people.
