LEARNING TO SHUT YOUR MOUTH

learn to shut your mouthI have always been convicted by Proverbs 10:19: "In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that refraineth his lips is wise." How true it is that the more we open our mouth, the more we are prone to say the wrong thing. It pays to watch our words.

After all these years I am still trying to get into the habit of shutting my mouth. This is my plan: if I can't reply with something kind or positive, I shut my mouth and don't say anything at all.

Can you join with me in this habit of shutting your mouth? On the other hand, don't be silent all day. Open your mouth to say kind, positive, loving, and building up words to your husband and children.

The New Living Translation of this Scripture says, "Too much talk leads to sin. Be sensible and keep your mouth shut."
