Giving bad things for Lent- Hasty Judgements
We rush to judgement. Sometimes we get caught up in a lynch mob mentality, other times we just think we know it all. There is something called the "Four Way Test" put out by Rotary International. It helps people know if information is something that should be passed on or if it is just a hurtful rumor that should go no farther than your ear. First Test- Is it the truth? Second Test- Is it fair to all concerned? Third test- Will it build Goodwill and Better Friendships? Fourth Test- Will it be beneficial to all concerned if it is shared? Putting information through these 4 tests will help us be people who are trustworthy and honest. Larry Boy had to learn this lesson to.
