James 1-26

If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless.
—James 1:26

Thoughts on the Verse  

Religion that is not reflected in everyday speech is empty and hollow. So let's use our speech to bless,encourage and not to curse, slander or gossip.

Prayer
Holy  God, please forgive me for not using my speech well. Forgive me for the times I've used my words to wound others or in ways that dishonor you . Use my words to bless, encourage. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
