Day 7 of 30 day Challenge!

In today's scripture reading we read Psalm 34:13-14 Keep your tongue form evil and your lips from speaking deceit. Turn away from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue. We should be seeking peace with others and in our own lives. In my opinion I believe that when we are at peace with others then we are at peace with ourselves. Over and over the scripture tells us to love one another. Gossip or backing biting just bring people down. We should say and do only what would edify and build up a brother or sister. 1 Thessalonians 5:11 says, "Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you are also doing."  James 3:8 goes to say, "But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison." We need God's help. I pray this week you would think about what you say before you say it. Is what your saying edifying or is going to tear someone down. I pray you seek God in this He is the only one who can help us tame our tongues. 

Sincerely, Jess
