Watch Your Words

 


Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.Ephesians 4:29 NIV Bible gateway 
Have you been hurt by someone else’s words? It may be a spouse, a friend, a relative. Words can cut like a hot knife through butter.

Many places in scripture there are verses about the dangers of wrong words. If you claim to represent Christ does your speech represent Him as well? Ponder that. 

Words can cause deep wounds that sometimes take years to heal and recover from. If you have hurt someone go ask forgiveness. It will take humility as our pride and selfishness gets in the way. If you have been hurt learn to forgive. Take the high road. 

PRAYER: Father I want to ask you to show me where I need to get better when it comes your things I say or text. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
