"The tongue is a small thing that makes grand speeches. But a tiny spark can set a grand forest on fire. And the tongue is a flame of fire. It is a whole world of wickedness, corrupting your entire body. It can set your whole life on fire, for it is set on fire by hell itself." - James 3:5-7
The Bible has a lot to say about how we use our mouths. James goes on to tell us that with the same mouth that we praise our Lord comes cursing and gossip. I believe not being able to tame your tongue is an issue that young and old struggle with. Gossip has no age target; it can hit us all if we are not careful. The Bible talks about taking every thought captive, but let's go a step further in our faith and practice taking every word captive. Through the Spirit enabling us, we can put an end to every foolish word that would be spoken by us. We can rise above gossip, profanity, and rudeness. We can truly be children of righteousness. - Pastor Sarah
"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
