—James 3:1-6
by: Susan Bond.
God's Word is sharp, powerful, and, oh, so necessary. Thank you, God, for the convicting power, the cleansing power of your Word. When we are tempted to let go a stream of words that may satisfy our own need for emotional release, yet drown the listener in a sea of ugliness, put a guard on our mouths that we might not sin against you. Guide us, at those moments, to your Word that we might have a Word transfusion (Ephesians 4:29; Hebrews 4:11, 12; John 17:17; Psalm 141:3; and Psalm 19:14).
