3/29/2011 - "Bite your tongue"

Scripture:
Palsm 52: 2-4 " Your tongue devises destruction like a sharp razor o worker of deceit. You love evil more than good, falsehood more than speaking what is right. You love all words that devour o deceitful tongue."

Observation:
Who and how can so called Christian boast bitter words yet they fill remorse but rather preach to others that they are righteous beings? They point and oppress those who boast of them when they are committing the same sin? As an example of Christian, we should think really think twice before we speak, that goes for me. If it's bitterness against individual or particular situation, I realize it's better to bite my tongue and be cautious of my words. When we live in a society where everything is recorded and can be used against you when your intention were good.

Application:
Words have powerful consequences. we easily get hurt and misunderstood. I will need to think twice before I speak. I can sense that God is teaching me that through my struggles with my indirect families. It is reality, that family and business does not mix, but its more of struggles when the tongues blast and contribute of untrue stories. From this I have learned, if what I am about to say is of God purpose and is meaningful in righteous way, if not, then it's better not to say. God gave us mouth to be utilize in positive ways rather than use for deceit or to con others.

Prayer:
Heavenly Father, cleanse my heart, soul and mouth. We fill out mouth and heart with so many sins on day to day. Help me to utilize the tools you have given to preach your words and existence. Being able to share your love and kindness with others. Let my actions and tongue reflect your presence. Let me be graceful and just in what I say and do.
