"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
I came across this verse today & thought about the way the world is today. If you have taken a look at the media lately, there is a lot of what I call, "verbal slamming" going on. Every where we look, individuals seem to be having a field day with bad verbage. People's words can either become their enemy or their friend.
So-- what is it that we are really saying? As humans, it is so easy to just pop off at the mouth. Now it is really clear to see why God gave us only one mouth, but he also gave us two ears. Are our words either...Helpful or Unhelpful...Edifying or Unedifying????
In other words, think before we speak... cause once words have left our mouths, it makes a great impact & regretfully, we can't take them back.
