Ephesians 4:29.

"Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen."

So this verse really convicted me the other day. I really need to shut my mouth and think before I speak. I keep hurting others with the words that I say and at times I don't even know it. I think that they are just plain jokes, but they are indeed hurtful. This needs to stop.

Father, please let the words that come out of my mouth glorify You. I don't want to hurt others with what I say. Take hold of my tongue and give me the strength to hold back what doesn't need to be said. Thank You Father for loving me even when I hurt others. I'm sorry that I do this and I ask You that You help me and be my strength. I love You. Amen
