What Can You Say?

What Can You Say?

If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless.

James 1:26

If you have a problem controlling your tongue, you are probably aware of it because you may have repeatedly hurt family and friends with your words.

What can you do to be more intentional about controlling your tongue? Think of one thing to practice today, such as I will not speak if I am angry, I will ask a question before making a comment, I will start each conversation with a compliment, or I will count to three before I say anything.

As you practice this exercise of changing your speech, ask the Lord to also change your heart to be more gracious to others.
