If you thought of asking someone to do something that you yourself would not do, nothing would come out of your mouth when you went to speak.
I would not control your mind or what you think. But I would not allow people to say things to hear themselves speak, to make themselves feel good about themselves, or feed their ego. You can think it, but you would not be allowed to speak it.
For example, you would not be allowed to ask someone to borrow something if you yourself would not lend that thing to a friend.
Another example, you would not be allowed to ask someone to drive across town if you yourself would not drive across town for that friend.
I personally have a friend who every 2 years calls me and says, "I would like a copy of your client database for my business." I tell him that I would like a copy of his client database for his business." He begins to tell me the many reasons I cannot have a copy of his client database for his business and I say, "Dude, please do not ask me to do something for you that you would not be willing to do for me!" There is just something not right about that.
Lol...lol... can you imagine how it would be if you were talking to someone and they were going to ask you something, to borrow something, to do them a favor and then nothing came out of their mouth. You would know a lot from this. It also just might make someone think really long and hard about what they would even contemplate asking another individual.
Yep, if I were God the commandment would be.... Thou Shalt Not Ask Another To Do Anything You Would Not Yourself Be Willing To Do.
With Love & Light ~
