463. Are you adding "fuel to the fire?"

Have you ever seen those safety videos where the firefighter says “this is why you don’t open the door if you suspect there’s a fire outside it. And they show the fire exploding because of the extra oxygen given the fire by the door opening or the window opening?  That’s where the saying don’t “add fuel to the fire” comes from.

 I can remember my mom telling me not to add fuel to the fire if my sister was getting in trouble or some drama was going on and I was getting in the middle of it.  A fire will fizzle out eventually if it’s deprived of oxygen. But have you ever thought about how the same thing is true of gossip or negativity?  Check out Episode 463 to find out why it's important to be intentional with our words. I love you guys!
