Taming the tongue Tuesday!


Well it's Tuesday.
I'm running behind.

but I've still got time for
Taming the Tongue.


It's Christmas season!
'Nuf
Said!

OHHHHHHH
We must endure our relatives...and they must endure us.
How can me make the events we go to...since there are so many...
pleasant?

Keep a guard on our tongue!

James 3...
(yep we're going there again...)
v. 5 Likewise the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes a great boasts.
Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark.

Let's not set any fires this year...unless they're in the fireplace.
Let's keep a handle on our tongues and speak kind to
co-workers...
neighbors...
church members...
family members...
our children...
and
our husbands!

Even if others don't speak kindly...'cause they will...
HOLD
THAT
TONGUE...
don't let it get started...
ablaze!

Oh this can be so hard....especially around certain family members. I'll be praying for the Lord's help in this area. Maybe if I keep my mouth full of cookies I'll be ok?

This is easy to write but hard to do when you have folks screaming at you. Case in point...I had an authority/leader literally ranting at me...and what did I do...well I passed it on to his secretary...so it's hard to do believe me.
