Watch Your Mouth
Proverbs 13:3
He that keeps his mouth keeps his life;
but he that opens wide his lips shall have destruction.
What comes out of our mouths says a lot about what's in our hearts - what words do we speak each day - are the negative - then you will reap negativity in your heart - if they are vulgar -what's down deep in your heart is coming out - you can learn a lot about a person by just hearing them talk - I must confess I often speak negative things - and I don't like that about me - I ask the Holy Spirit to please change me - but it all starts with the heart - we need to get to the heart of the matter as to why we say what we say - often our words do hurt others -despite what the nursery rhyme says - word do hurt and the thing about words is you cannot really take them back - once something is said - it's out in the open - relationships end by words - we lose our way often times because we think the things we do and say the things we say - losing our way means to me not following Jesus like we should - what do we speak about JESUS? Do we defend Him when others are attacking - are we using our words to Praise Him? I am preaching to myself as well today - I need to watch my mouth - but it's not just our mouth - but our hearts must be checked daily - it's easy to fall into a line of thinking and before you know it your words have caused scars in those around us - what we say matters - the world is listening - let's use our mouths to only praise the LORD - let's love others with the words we say and use each day - what can you say? Let's praise and not curse -
Let's watch our mouths and allow the Holy Spirit to cleanse our hearts from all unrightousness! Speak all you speak with love!
