We all know we have to watch our mouths, right?
I'm talking about watching our lying mouths. "Truthful lips endure forever, but a lying tongue is but for a moment." (Proverbs 12:19). As you ponder those words, do you know anybody who just lies all the time? If so, it's something they (we) can all work on if it's an area of struggle for any of us. And especially if it's to the point where we like to hear ourselves talk so much we make up elaborate stories about any and everything. After reading Proverbs 12 I thought I would blog about it, because it's an important issue that needs attention. We should give it the floor, because what we say can and will be used against us. And I don't want doom and gloom for anybody simply because we're not watching our lying tongues.
Proverbs 12 is what many of us are striving to do: complete the hard work on ourselves and become better than the day before, because we all need help in some of the areas of our lives. Nobody's perfect, we're just trying to get things right and sometimes we slip. That's ok too, because God gives us grace, thank God.
