TOTD, December 08 – Beware of Our Tongue

Beware of Our Tongue

With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse human beings, who have been made in God’s likeness. Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this should not be.Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring? My brothers and sisters, can a fig tree bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water.

--- James 3: 9-12

Beware of our tongue.

As what the book of James said: with tongue, we praise our Lord and with it we curse human beings. Well, we’ve been doing that many times. It’s not easy to control our tongue. But, if only we want to be better God’s disciples, try our best to control our tongue in each and everyday. Of course, it’s not an easy task… But, we should try to do it with all our heart. (-fon-)
