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. (James 3:9-10) Earlier in the same chapter, James talks about how difficult it is to be in total control of our speech. Its far too easy for words to come out before we think about what were saying. Its far too easy, in the midst of a heated exchange, to say something hateful. Its far too easy to offer up gossip about those around us - in the moment it feels so good, and yet it is a social cancer. Ask those around you to help you hear whats coming out of your mouth. Is it praise or is it cursing?
