The Fairy Tongue

Tweet

How controlling your speech can change your life. Why did you say that? is a question that most of us have had to ask ourselves and too amny question. Yet we continue to talk and talk,speaking before we think voicing our indignant opinions, criticizing everything and everyone in sight. In the bible describe the tongue as a force of destruction, saying, "The tongue is a small part of the body and yet it boasts of great things. See How a forest is set a flame by such a small fire!" Why is it so difficult to control our overactive mouth?Are we desperate for recognition and validation or do we just enjoy voicing our concern? What ever the case maybe,our fleshseems particularly valuable to uninhibited expression. God's word however emphasizes the importance of guarding our speech.
