Making a positive impact for the good requires reflection on the timing when someone is ready to hear hard words.

We all need someone or even more than one person to tell us what we need to hear that we don't want to hear. But timing is important.

When the best conversations happen someone is able to get this message across to us and deep into our hearts. Where we came from. Where we are going. What we were cut out to do by our maker who is in heaven. We came to earth from there. We go back there.

Our best work here on earth is to help people to get to know him. He cares more about our character and competence than about our comfort. So some of us, fortunately, married people who said words that made us uncomfortable, but helped us.
