J.R. Miller emphasizes the significance of thoughtfulness and tact in our interactions, illustrating how a kind word or action at the right moment can profoundly impact others. He contrasts those who, despite good intentions, fail to be effective due to a lack of tact, often causing more harm than good. Miller highlights that true tact is rooted in love and understanding, as exemplified by Christ, who always spoke the truth with gentleness and consideration. He argues that tact is essential for effective ministry and relationships, as it fosters goodwill and opens hearts to the message of Christ. Ultimately, Miller calls for a cultivation of this gift, which can be developed through a heart filled with Christ's love.
