OUT OF THE SAME MOUTH PROCEED BLESSING AND CURSING (James 3:9-10)
The tongue that blesses God should help men instead of wounding them. All that we say should be subject to the threefold test: Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary? Constantly we should ask the Lord to set a watch before our lips (Psalm 141:3), and pray that the words of our mouths and the meditations of our hearts might be acceptable in the sight of Him who is our Strength and Redeemer (Psalm 19:14). We should remember that our members in Romans 12:1 include our tongue.
