'Grumbling, of course, is what other people do. What I do
is make legitimate observations and justified criticism. And I'm sure that you,
dear reader, are the same. Or are we fooling ourselves? Let's put it to the
test. Challenge yourself to make only positive comments [this year]. Let's call
it the 'Ephesians 4' challenge. Ephesians 4:9 says: 'Do
not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful
for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who
listen.'
