***VERY interesting read.*** Guard Your Mouth Today's Scripture "He who guards his mouth keeps his life, but he who opens wide his lips comes to ruin" (Proverbs 13:3 AMP). We've all said things we wish we could take back. Maybe you weren't literally in a life or death situation, but I believe every word we speak has power. Our words determine the direction of our lives. The Bible tells us that life and death are in the power of the tongue. There's no neutral ground. We are either sowing seeds of life and productivity with our words, or we are sowing seeds of ruin and destruction with our words. Today is a good day to take inventory of your words and make the decision to sow only good seeds with your words. Sow seeds of life by speaking God's Word over your own life and the lives of those around you. Ask the Holy Spirit to teach you to consider every word before you say it. Make the decision today that your words will bring glory to Lord. As you guard your mouth, you will "keep" your life. You'll see increase in every area and enjoy the blessing the Lord has in store for you! A Prayer for Today Heavenly Father, I submit this day to You. I give You my every thought, word and action. Help me, Holy Spirit, to live a life pleasing to the Father in every way. Help me speak words of blessing to edify those around me today. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
