How are the words that you choose to speak? Are they 'fitly spoken'?
Proverbs 18:21 tells us that "life and death are in the power of the tongue." Therefore we should choose our words wisely.
Here are a few more verses from the book of Proverbs concerning our tongue and the words that roll off of it...
"A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit." (Proverbs 15:4)
"Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones." (Proverbs 16:14)
"The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook." (Proverbs 18:4)
Until next time...
~Rebecca
