Scripture: Proverbs 18:21 The tongue can bring death or life; those who love to talk will reap the consequences. (New Living Translation)
Nugget: There is power in what we say; as it’s been said “there’s power in the tongue”. The thing is, if we chose to speak life or death into a situation—positivity or negativity. And most of us know, if you give someone enough rope, they will put themselves out of the running. Ex) the person who doesn’t know when to be quiet.
Guard your words, focus on what you speak into your life & the lives of others. There’s a lot to consider when you speak!
Quote: “Know that a word suddenly shot from the tongue is like an arrow shot from the bow. That arrow won’t turn back on its way.” –Mevlana Rumi
