“When there are many words, sin is unavoidable,
but the one who controls his lips is prudent.” – Proverbs 10:19
We live in an age of many words. It’s easier and easier for us to say many words, whether with our voices, our fingertips (texting, emailing, or posting), or by simply clicking a button to “Share” or “Re-Tweet”. Be careful!!! The more words we say, the likelier we are to sin.
If you’re a follower of Jesus, then you are NEVER just speaking for yourself. You are always speaking as a royal priest and ambassador of King Jesus. Always! Everything you say, post, or share also speaks on behalf of Him. If it isn’t in keeping with His character, then you are speaking sin!
Control your lips. Control your fingertips. Be prudent and glorify God by everything you communicate and through the wisdom of silence!
