Control Your Tongue

If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless.
— JAMES 1:26 (NLT)

When you speak, do people try to find the nearest exit? Nothing speaks more about who you are than the words you use. When Jesus spoke, people felt loved, uplifted, and peace. How do people feel when you speak? Take time to control your tongue and think about how your words make others feel. If you find that you’ve spoken poorly to loved ones, co-worker, or friends, you can change your ways today by thinking before you speak. Ask yourself, “Is God pleased with how I speak to others?” Plus, if you really love God, and He is in you, it should be represented by how you speak to your spouse, son, daughter, parents, brother, sister, grandparents, uncle, aunt, cousin, best friend, pastor, boss, co-worker, friend…

Heavenly Father, thank You for giving me the power to control my tongue. I’m done fooling myself. I will use my words to uplift people and help them to feel Your love. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

This is my prayer
