Speak Your Mind
By Mark Flippo
I have known so many that are quick to speak their mind without using Wisdom to filter what they wanted to say! Have you ever looked into scripture and seen how many times God cautions use about what we say! The world is set ablaze by the
fire that your tongue can produce. More destruction has happened by someone's mouth than any natural disaster! So many have been emotionally destroyed by cruel thoughtless words!
James Chapter 3
3-Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body.
4-Behold also the ships, which though they be so great, and are driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, whithersoever the governor listeth.
5-Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!
6-And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.
7-For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind:
8-But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
9-Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God.
10-Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.
11-Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter?
Discipline yourself first before trying to help others! We need to ask for forgiveness and get a cleaned out mind! Then work on yourself. Everyone around you can appreciate that!
