Please, Watch What You Say...




My son and I were in his room this past Saturday morning before breakfast. He was quietly playing with his cars as I rocked in his rocking chair reading a book. I had just placed a tea bag in my hot water to steep a few minutes earlier. I quietly got up and said to K, "I'll be right back, I am going to go get my tea" and as I walked out of the room I heard a soft, "I'll be here". I turn to see my two year old with a big grin on his face. I then went to the kitchen chuckling the whole way.

Your Tongue Can Be A Snare To Your Soul.



It was a scenario that had happened plenty of times before. 

I felt hurt, my husband felt disrespected and we were fighting. 

Correction. I was fighting, yelling to be precise while my husband was attempting to have a calm conversation with me. 

I was too proud to soften my voice or stop the flow of things that were on my mind. I wasn't feeling heard, so I got louder and louder. My words got sharper and sharper

Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. 

Proverbs 16:18
