Talk Isn't Cheap!

How about this for a starter:
Sticks and stones may break my bones,
But words will never hurt me.

or this one:
I'm rubber your glue,
Whatever you say bounces off of me and,
Sticks to you.

Aren't those sayings just crazy? I wish those were really true in the sense the you can really make that happen. There are times when we say things without realizing the deep destruction that its doing. There are times when you say things that make you feel better but you instantly sense the hurt. Anybody ever been there?

God says don't let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouth, but it just slips out. We need to start learning to control our tongues, actions, and hearts - of course we need to quit letting others control us as well. Shame on us.

So the fix is, use your time with God to fix your downfalls, but use those times to build you up. Not to be better than anyone of course but just to make God's kingdom look and smell as sweet as honey.

So words cost ALOT don't they?
