Day 18 – Proverbs 18:21

Please be careful with the words that come out from your mouth. Sometimes, we feel like the best thing to express what we feel inside is simply releasing it through words. But then, we can never really take back all those words. And we can never easily erase it to someone’s mind. So think before you speak. Listen first before you say anything that might destroy someone’s life. You may feel that it’s not a big deal for you, then always remember that we all have different ways of coping up. If you are brave enough to face those hurtful words, then good for you. But for others, it means so much to them. So instead of releasing negative thoughts, learn to share something that will lift up others.

May you always choose to listen before you speak.  Allow God to deal with what you feel inside first before you talk to somebody else.
