FROM TODAY’S READING (6/15/2021)...
“Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.”
Eleanor Roosevelt
NOTE: Yep…good reminder.
Ephesians 4:29 (NLT) Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.
James 1:26 (NLT) If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless.
Proverbs 18:2, 4, 7-8, 13, 15, 20-21 (NLT) Fools have no interest in understanding; they only want to air their own opinions…
Wise words are like deep waters; wisdom flows from the wise like a bubbling brook…
The mouths of fools are their ruin; they trap themselves with their lips…
Rumors are dainty morsels that sink deep into one’s heart…
Spouting off before listening to the facts is both shameful and foolish…
Intelligent people are always ready to learn. Their ears are open for knowledge…
Wise words satisfy like a good meal; the right words bring satisfaction…
The tongue can bring death or life; those who love to talk will reap the consequences.
