My apologies for the essay please take it up with God. We are all created in the image of God ,so presumably we all should speak and act in his image. But the truth is a minority of people act in a self centered immoral way. My whole life ive been around negative angry people and it started rubbing off on me. People I was around would always use anger and inappropriate language to express themselves in a conversation. And it ended up becoming a language of choice for me in my daily life. My whole life ive probably heard and said every swear word known to man, every second word out of my mouth was foul and offensive,but guess I was just truly reflecting how I really felt about myself inside. It was my conversation and it was all self centered around me. That was a habit most of my life and I truly thought I would never stop. I was told on many different occasions, I swear allot but I wouldnt care. My reply was always I dont notice it and its a habit and cant stop . But that was until I met God. I cant remember the last time I swore as I feel its not part of living a Christian life or a language God would of spoke. Swearing doesn’t make your argument valid; it just tells the other person you have lost your class and control. Hearing it now, makes me not want to be around negative people who swear and im not a devout Christian, if I dont tell people how offensive and profane there impure speech is to me. I dont judge as God has that duty. But my duty is to make people aware as sometimes they dont even know how there offending God. A priest once told me that the man of impure speech is a person whose lips are but an opening and a supply pipe which hell uses to vomit its impurities upon the earth. I always ask people when they swear, if they would speak to God that way ? Their reply is always is NO so I always tell them. Then what gives you the right to speak to me that way. That is food for thought. I always remind myself before engaging in a conversation that im speaking to God and I should always be reflecting God back to them. That always helps me ground myself and speak the language of LOVE. As Love is the only language that is shown without saying a single word.
