The Dangerous Tongue

The tongue can be a truely dangerous weapon. It can hurt someone deeply or lift them up when they need it the most. In James 3:8 it is said that the tongue "is an unruly evil, full of deadly poisin." We as Christians need to put a bit in our mouths so that what comes out of our mouths is what God would have it say. Everyone likes to use thier mouth for evil things (gossip, lies, cursing, etc..). However, the question you should be asking yourself is, "Is what I say give a positive outlook on other Chirstians an dmost importantly God?" If we are spreading gossip or tearing people down then we aren't useing our mouths for God's will. We should be going out and lifting up the weak, showing the world the love and compassion of God. we as Christians should be giving a positive outlook to ourselves and be positive influences to the world. We need to be useing our words to set the world on fire for God. My challenge for you is  to lift someone up and show kindness through God's words!!!!
