Consider well...

...the counsel you take and the sources you take it from. Make sure you aren't acting on your insecurities, but instead on what you know to be true. Do not proceed in haste, the situation is rare that there is cause for you to rush in. Apply wisdom to choosing those that you allow to speak into your life and weigh out how their words line up with the truth of the word. There is too much at stake to be careless with our words or actions. Search out the depth of a thing and draw out understanding before you answer. I'm not calling you to neurotic behavior, but to sound and well weighed out action and speech.
1st Pete 3:15 states, - Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander.
Remember these things and it will be well with you. People are still going to misread and misunderstand your actions, but when you have acted prudently your mind and your heart will be at rest.
