"The lips of the righteous know what is fitting, but the mouth of the wicked know only what is perverse." Proverbs 10:32
Thoughts on Today's Verse by Phil Ware
How many times have you said just the "wrong" thing?
For me, it is more often than I would like to recall.
Jesus words on this topic are indeed convicting to me: "Out of the abundance of the heart does the mouth speak."
In other words, poor words and bad timing in our speech are more issues of our heart than issues of social skills and decorum. Let's ask God to purify, mend, and re-focus our hearts on his will and passion.
