Our Weighty Instrument

Each of us is bestowed with a very small instrument. It can build or destroy.

It can cause happiness or sorrow.

Though quite small in size, it carries a lot of weight.

That instrument, of course, is our tongue.

Let's be careful with how we use our voice.

The wisest of all men, Solomon, said in Proverbs 25:11,

"Like apples of gold in settings of silver is a word spoken in right circumstances."

Speak an encouraging and friendly word. It could be just he word someone needs to hear.

Have a good day!
Love,
Dad


Upon doing a Bible search on the word "tongue," I came up with 120 verses using that word alone. I encourage you to do a similar search and to concentrate on what the Lord has to say regarding the use of our tongue. Do we use it for wickedness or righteousness?
