October book review due:10/31
This week I have been thinking about this verse:
And so blessing and cursing come pouring out of the same mouth. Surely my brothers and sisters, this is not right! James 3:10
It reminded me of our Bible verse, Proverbs 17:9. Both verses talk about how our mouths can cause trouble and encourage us to focus on what others are doing right and forgiveness, rather than getting stuck on what they may have done to us. Speaking goodness into the lives of others isn’t easy at times. When I struggle , I try to remember that God is hearing each word I say, as well as those thoughts that go unsaid. This assists me in keeping my focus on the positive. I hope this encourages you in some small way.
Have a great week!!
