A Fool's Mouth That Runs Amuck

 A Fool's Mouth that Runs Amuck

Have you ever wished you could take something back that you said the exact moment you said it? The old saying "regret is a hard pill to swallow" is something I've experienced before. Another one: "think before you speak" is such good advice, isn't it? God points to us the senseless use of our mouth that can cause us havoc with our souls. It stands to reason that if we run our mouths with negativity, ill talk of others or situations at hand, or certainly continue on until we are provoked to anger ourselves or cause others to anger, all of these things lead to sin.
If it's not good for anyone, don't say it!
"A fool's mouth is his ruin, and his lips are a snare to his soul."--Proverbs 18:7
Let's try today to remind ourselves about the power of the mouth and keep it shut if it will only cause us to stumble. Easier said than done! Especially for all of us talkers! Happy Fools Day, ya'll.


PRAYER

Lord, such a great reminder that our mouths are the beginning of a tricky trail to ruin. Let me be conscious today of any ill talk or negativity that should try to sprout up. I will stop it in its tracks and listen to your word. If I happen to fall into a conversation with others that seems to be headed towards gossip, I will not join in. I will be reminded that it will indeed bring about my sinful nature and walk away. Thank you Lord, for your ways are so good for me. You continue to teach me how to behave and live a godly life that is pleasing to you. In Jesus name we pray, Amen.
We are better together.
Have a blessed day, Kimala

Wading through Grief

  Wading through Grief The nature of grief seems to spill into other areas of our lives while we attempt to navigate it's shores. We can begin to believe we got a better handle on it, creating boundaries to keep it tucked inside, but it can spread quickly and overtake the lines we draw in the sand. So true. As you stand on its shores, can you see what's ahead? Look for the smallest sparkle of light. God knows your heart. He knows what pains you deeply. He sees you long for what and who you miss so dearly. Recognize your desire to replace the hole that was left inside of you. Fill it with God's goodness and let His love wash over any areas that have left you feeling high and dry. What you thirst for, He has for you. "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds."--Psalm 147:3 Soon, you will recognize that grief was a gift He provided to help you swim to the next new shore. New territory can spring forth new beginnings. Yes, it will look and feel different. ...

Our Body is a Temple

  KIMALA'S CORNER Our Body is a Temple Consider this: what have you done for yourself lately regarding your physical self care? Do you actively engage in exercise or strenuous activity to get it moving and burning excess calories? Do you conciously choose healthy eating options and promote good healthcare? Do you make regular appointments for dental and physician routine check ups? Do you take care of your outward appearance regarding your hair, face, skin, nails, etc? How about mental self care? Do you only intake that which would do you well, pondering, contemplating and considering your mental thoughts? Do you carefully screen what you watch, listen to and read? Do you take opportunity to unplug and unwind by resting yourself? How about spiritual self care? Can you consider your time each day with the Lord, reading his word, watching Christian movies, listening to spiritual leaders on Podcast and radio? Are you involved with a ministry or bible study with your church? Are you he...

Exceeding Love

Image
Exceeding Love We cannot comprehend it. This kind of unconditional love. The outpouring from a Savior who would give anything for us--longing to have relationship with you and I. No man or woman walking this Earth can compare or even come close to loving you the way that Jesus does. No one. Today, dig deep inside to fill the hurt, anger, pain, upset, anxiousness, worry or disappointment with the One True God. His love is exceeding--His love is healing. Allow yourself to be filled to measure--what does that mean exactly? Well, in my mind, it means to the tippy top!!!! He loves you that much. "and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God."--Ephesians 3:19 We are better together when we are Splashed in the Spirit.
