Happy Tuesday it’s a great day today for our ladies Bible study and me with the kids who I really enjoy. Each day is a new adventure to enter we never know just what this day will bring.
Our meditation comes from
Prov. 15:28 “The heart of the godly thinks carefully before speaking, the mouth of the wicked overflows with evil words.”
Two thoughts crowd into our reasoning mind.
Think before you speak
Evil words are rampant
First up is the need for us to think through our conversations. I ran across a verse in Psa. 62:8
it points out three steps to take
to guard our words from
bringing harm to others.
Put total trust in God
Pour out your heart to Him
Go to Him for protection
So let’s be purposeful in our
lives.
The second thought of realizing
that harmful words are rampant in
our world so sift through these
words for as Phil. 4:8 words of
truth, honesty, protecting justice,
lift up purity, encourage
loveliness in an ugly world, ones
focused on goodness, and have
virtue and praise at the very
foundation of our thoughts
So how do you meet up to the test?
Do you take the vital steps to be as a piano in tune with our Father?
Are your ears tuned into Our Lord’s heart for “others”
So Go With God spend time in His Word and His thoughts and in conversations with Him and He will cause your tongue to be UP lifting.
How often have I had to "bite" my tongue for what I've said, can't begin to count them. I have learned, finally, that I don't always have to respond even when I disagree (or especially) with what I hear. 🤔
