What I do know is that silence is not always golden. God put us with people so that we can converse with one another, love one another, care and pray for each other. But when we get silent, the negative side of us comes out. We begin to worry, stress, become anxious, fearful, and side with the spirit of torment.
I've heard that silence is a form of rejection, but is it really? I think of silence as a positive thing too. I would rather be silent and bite my tongue than spew off at my mouth and say something that I will regret later.
I hope that if you are going through a struggle of some kind; talk it out with someone close to you.
Don't keep things bottled up inside and make yourself a personal prison; it won't help you to feel good.
God put people in our lives so that we can edify one another and not break us apart. Like I recently told a friend of mine, if you are in the negative ways of thinking, get a foam bat from the Dollar Tree, bring it home and beat your bed until you cry. Trust me, you will feel better after a good hard swing or 50.
Whatever you do, don't keep silent; it can put your body into a twist that even a pretzel can't get out of.
~Be encouraged, I've beat a bed or two in my time too. It works if you work it.
