I purchased this book from Amazon to #buddyread with Kayla. All opinions are my own. Kayla and I met through #modernmrsdarcy Bookclub. We discussed doing a bible study together and we decided on Keep It Shut by Karen Ehman. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Let me just say this book couldn’t have been presented at a better time and place than now. With all the inside struggles of a family when a parent becomes sick and other daily issues that normally seem minimal, tempers flare and words get said that you can’t take back. Remember just because it’s how you feel doesn’t mean this is the time to say so. Everyone wants to help and being the loudest doesn’t always work. Sometimes it’s not what you say it’s how you say it and when you say it that works for the best. Lehman walks through using words to wrap people in love even when telling them what they don’t want to hear works better than being angry or spouting it out loud in person or online all while tying it with scripture and helping you ask for help from the right person to get the words right in your heart before they spew from your mouth. She even uses examples from her personal conversations to set the tone of the chapter.
