Are we being careful with what we are saying?




I know that the second picture is just a mistake, but the truth remains. Words are so powerful, we many times forget the power and awesome responsibility our words hold. So many times we speak without truly contemplating the meaning of what were going to say. This is something that I know that I must get better at, but is so very hard. We don't want to respond after thinking we want to respond out of our emotions. There is very little within us that says: "hey stop for a second, maybe that is not what they meant" we just want to go after the point that stood out to us and defeat their proposition. I believe so many times in our lives we have not lived out the proverbs passage where it says: "better for a fool to stay silent then to open his mouth and prove himself one." We are all fools and when we respond from our own understanding we will always prove ourselves as such.

May God remind me to respond from His wisdom instead of my own.
