Less of a Cure Than You Would Think

  A man comes into a doctor's office and frantically asks the doctor, “Do you have a cure for hiccups?” The doctor stands up and slaps the man right across his face. The stunned man says, “Why did you do that?”. The doctor smirks and responds, “Well, do you still have the hiccups?” The confused man replies “I never did, it’s my wife who has them, she is out in the car”   Proverbs 18:13 tells us, “ He who gives an answer before he hears, It is folly and shame to him .” I’m afraid too many of us are like that doctor and are quick to dole out solutions before we really know what the problem is. So many problems and people in our world are more complex than we realize at a cursory glance. If we are quick to judge and quick to speak, we might also be quick to harm.   Before we make a fool out of ourselves, it might be better to listen and think before we react. It may save more face than our own.
