"Do not be quick with your mouth, do not be hasty in your heart to utter anything before God. God is in heaven, and you are on earth, so let your words be few." - Ecclesiastes 5:2
The following are actual corrections newspapers made following an error in reporting:
“Due to a typing error, Saturday’s story on local artist Jon Henninger mistakenly reported that Henninger’s bandmate Eric Lyday was on drugs. The story should have read that Lyday was on drums. The Sentinel regrets the error.”
“There was an error printed in a story titled “Pigs Float Down the Dawson” on page 11 of yesterday’s Bully. The story, by reporter Daniel Burdon, said “more than 30,000 pigs were floating down the Dawson River”. What Baralaba piggery owner Sid Everingham actually said was “30 sows and pigs”, not “30,000 pigs”. The Morning Bulletin would like to apologize for this error.”
Finally, baseball pitcher Pat Venditte has the rare ability to pitch with either arm. However, instead of calling Pat an “ambidextrous pitcher”, one newspaper called him an “amphibious pitcher”.
We need to think and speak less and when we do, it should be truth. Today in prayer, praise the Lord that He hears all and understands all and seek to glorify in Him with your speech.
