He who guards his lips guards his life, but he who speaks rashly will come to ruin. Proverbs 13:3

Have you ever said something without giving it much thought? Or perhaps the question might very well be, how many times this week have you spoken without thinking?

We do it all the time, don’t we?

Much of the trouble we encounter in life is of our own making: the decisions we make, the words we speak, and the friends we keep all contribute to our success or demise. When we do any of those three things rashly and without forethought, we’re asking for trouble.

As I stated yesterday, instead of asking for trouble, we probably should ask for the words to say from the Holy Spirit.
