Psalm 107:1 Holding Our Tongues W e rarely regret holding our tongue, though we often regret speaking, especially when it is done hastily or in anger. Silence also has the virtue of being impossible to correct. ere are plenty of opportunities to keep silent. When others are gossiping it is usually best to keep silent or to try to change the subject. When someone has spoken in anger to us or otherwise hurt our feelings, it is tempting to hit back with angry words, but your silence will show you to be the better person and perhaps convince the other person of their own sin. It is especially hard to hold our tongue when someone has said something about us that we know to be false. How much of our speech throughout the day is nothing more than an attempt to justify ourselves or present ourselves in a better light? In modern parlance, we are “virtue signaling” when we try to correct other’s misperceptions. When I was growing up I often heard the phrase “self-praise stinks” whenever someone was going on about how great they were. Leave the praising of yourself to others, and let others be the ones to criticize, to gossip, or to engage in all the endless chatter that pollutes our lives. Consider using the time your silence has afforded you for more beneficial endeavors. – Christopher Simon “e one who has knowledge uses words with restraint, and whoever has understanding is even-tempered. Even fools are thought wise if they keep silent, and discerning if they hold their tongues.” —Proverbs 17:27-28 Mr. Thomas Murray, son of the late Alfonzo Murray and Sarah Dorcas Wright Murray was born June 8, 1921 in Green County and departed this life Sept. 13, 2019 at the Green Hill Rehab & Care Center in Greensburg.

He was a retired farmer, General Manager and licensed tobacco buyer for the Jake Dulworth Tobacco Warehouse. He was also the for- mer Manager for the Burley #1 Warehouse. An auctioneer, Mr. Whitnaincy, had stat- ed, “Mr. Murray was the best starter on to- bacco that he had ever followed.” He united in mar- riage to Marie Kemp on December 23, 1939, who preceded him in death on February, 28, 2018. Survivors include one daughter and a son-in-law, Carolyn and Thomas D. Jones of Louisville; two grandchildren and their spouses, Steve and Marcy Jones of Nicholasville and Kar- en and Mark Robin- son of Louisville; two great grandchildren and a spouse, Cory Jones and Shannon and Cory Gibson, all of Nicholasville; one great-great grand- child, Noah Gibson of Nicholasville; six nieces, Betty Jeffer- ies, Wanda and Den- nis Henry, Phyllis and Daryl Morning, Sara Murray, Ann Strader and Margie Bloyd; five nephews, David and Maggie Murray, Sam and Beverly Kemp, Kenny Murray, Leslie and Lohman Sidebot- tom and Albert and Freda Sutton; special friends, Jimmy Little and Ray Acree, along with a host of other relatives and friends.
