Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only - TopicsExpress



          

Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. (Ephesians 4:29) Its easy to look at the first part of this and say. Oh man, another verse telling me what I shouldnt do. But theres more to it than that. When you read the rest of the verse theres an opportunity to do something good, not just to not do something bad. Every time you open your mouth you have a chance to speak life into someone; to administer grace and blessing and encouragement. Use your words to build up rather than tear down. Lift the conversation and mood in the room instead of dragging it down...
