The way we speak

If possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.

Romans 12:18

The Bible tells us here to live in peace with everyone, but honestly, sometimes it feels like we couldn´t live in peace with anyone! It happens that when we open our mouth we say ugly things, words that hurt other peoples feelings and we even speak harsh to our beloved ones.

Sometimes we critices other people, the things they do or say.

And most of the times this is a really bad habit. We are just so used to speak and critize that we can´t not do it.

If you look into the Bible, it says: “Let there be no coarse, stupid, or flippant talk; these things are out of place; you should rather be thanking GOD.” – Ephesians 5:4

Wow! I love this verse. It is so true. Sometimes we get lost in our stupid behaviour and we are not even thinking about it. But God gives us the command to stop with this flippant talk! I mean we are children of God, and we are supposed to talk in a fitting way – in a Godly way.

In order for us to archieve that, we should ask God for forgiveness and then turn around and stop talking in a harsh way to others.

I know that that´s not as easy as it sounds, but let me tell you that with the help of the ALMIGHTY, we will be able to behave in a way that pleases the Lord.

Make it a habit to speak as friendly as you can. Even if there is something incredibly annoying, don´t start speaking out loud your thoughts! First think about the words of God, pray, praise God and then react calmly!

This is how we improve ourselves and even bring joy to those around us.
