Is your tongue on fire?

Good morning!! If you don't believe the dead come back to life......be here at quitting time! lol God is good all the time, all the time God is good! How is your tongue today?

James 3:7-8 "People can tame all kinds of animals, birds, reptiles, and fish, but no one can tame the tongue. It is restless and evil, full of deadly poison." WOW!! What a statement! So very true! Well, if we can't tame the tongue why try? We may not gain perfect control of our tongues, but the Holy Spirit will help us learn self-control. We just have to remember we are not fighting the tongue's fire in our own strength, but with the Holy Spirit.

Through the Holy Spirit our power to monitor and control what we say will increase. When we are offended, the Spirit will remind us of God's love, and we won't react in a hateful manner. When we are criticized, the Spirit will heal the hurt and help us to not lash out.

How tough is this? Being of human nature our reaction when hurt is to lash out, strike back. Hmmm! Time to Stop, Drop, and Pray. Who has your tongue hurt today, this week, this month? It is time for Knee Mail! Thank you for reading. Love you all.


In Christ's Love and Grace
