True Wisdom Checklist; Day219

Jam 3:17  But the wisdom from above is first of all pure (undefiled); then it is peace-loving, courteous (considerate, gentle). [It is willing to] yield to reason, full of compassion and good fruits; it is wholehearted and straightforward, impartial and unfeigned (free from doubts, wavering, and insincerity).

A few days ago, I was approached by one of my  management team and was asked this question, Rigel, what do you think of employeeA?  I paused for a moment and I knew right away that this is a “trouble question”.  And then I replied, I  will never say negative things about a coworker nor will I tell you information that will hurt his reputation.  I remembered right away the theory of “character assassination” – we can kill someone’s reputation by saying the wrong words to the right people.  There is one person in my team that is not fully developed yet in terms of friendship (somewhere at the edge of the circle).  Lately, I’ve been doing a survey with myfellow co-workers on how to deal with this underdeveloped member (UM) and I noticed that their counsel was not satisfactory to my standards (The Bible Way).  One friend told me to bring the “machine version” of me when dealing with this guy. What he meant was leave my being “human” whenever I talk to this UM, he added, strictly business and to the rest of the crowd, bring on friendship.  Today’s reading is a great revelation on how to deal with situation like this.  I know that a few of you out there had encountered a few UM’s and had a hard time dealing with them.  Before we say or do anything to our UM’s,  run this checklist mentally.  Is what you are about to say pure? Is it peace loving? Is it reasonable? Is it full of compassion? Is it straightforward? Is it impartial? is it free from doubts?
