Knave, Nave, Know, Now: English is hard. Communication is harder. So much of our communication is non-verbal: pitch, volume, intonation, emphasis, inflection, facial tics, posture, gestures, eye contact, eye movement, ...

If it's important, make time to have a face to face conversation. It will mean more to the hearer, whether it's good news or bad.
Kurios Reflections: the Greek word, kurios, which means supreme. In scripture this refers to the Lord, God, or Christ. Reflections simply means the thoughts that I have concerning God and the communion that I have with Him.
