“Death and life are in the power of the tongue; And they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.”
Proverbs 18:21 RV1895 https://bible.com/bible/1922/pro.18.21.RV1895
Todays verse really hits home, doesn’t it? Most of us have a pretty good filter when it comes to talking in general. However, when it comes to family and close friends, the tongue kind of does its own thing, doesn’t it!
It’s so true that we hurt the ones we love. I like to think I really love my wife, brothers and sisters. But sometimes, the tongue can really cut people down.
Let’s take this verse to heart and really try to our tongue with love and speak through love. I don’t mean white lies or anything like that. Let love speak and don’t let your tongue get the better of you.
