Keep the Door of my lips... (Psalm 141 : 3)
Stop underestimating the power of spoken words. Sweet friendships have been relegated to cruel enmities by careless words in times past. Hearts have been broken, homes destroyed and great opportunities lost because of the unchecked utterances that roll smoothly out of many mortal tongues. The world would have been a better place and many eyes would have known no tears if only we can always remember that there is either healing or death in everything we say. You don't need unkind words to fight your battles. Honesty will get you the justice you deserve and the wicked won't go unpunished. It is when your heart boils with anger that your mouth should keep mute and if you can't control your lips from running insults, you can join the psalmist in his prayer: "set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth: keep the door of my lips" (Psalm 141 : 3)
Have a great day ahead
